According to Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team, New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game with a concussion. DeVito sustained this injury during the second quarter. As a result, veteran Tim Boyle will get the start for the remainder of the game. Before his early exit, DeVito went 10-for-13 with 68 yards. He was sacked two times and did not get on the scoresheet. Fantasy managers in Superflex formats should monitor DeVito's status after today's game as he may miss an extended period of time.
New York Giants quarterback Drew Lock (heel, left elbow) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. He had been listed as doubtful after missing all three practices this past week. Lock will serve as the Giants' emergency third quarterback on Sunday, which means he would be allowed to enter the game if both Tommy DeVito and Tim Boyle suffer injuries and cannot play. Otherwise, Lock will watch Sunday's game from the sideline. He can be dropped in most fantasy leagues now that DeVito is healthy and back under center.
According to Pat Leonard of The Daily News, quarterback Tim Boyle will be the backup QB for Tommy DeVito in Week 15. The 30-year-old was signed from the team's practice squad earlier this week and will now serve as second-string for New York's meeting with the visiting Baltimore Ravens. Teammate Drew Lock (heel/elbow), who is battling through injuries, will be the emergency QB. Boyle is now on his second squad of 2024, as he appeared in two games earlier this season for the Miami Dolphins. The veteran could get some playing time over the season's final stretch as the Giants continue to shuffle around quarterbacks due to injuries and poor play. However, none of New York's present quarterback options are particularly enticing for fantasy -- even against a Ravens defense that's allowed the third-most fantasy points per game to QBs in 2024 (22.3).
New York Giants running back Devin Singletary had a season-low two touches for eight yards in the Week 14 loss to the New Orleans Saints and should not be in any starting fantasy lineups for a Week 15 tilt against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens defense has given up lots of big plays in 2024, although they've been more stout against the run and are allowing only 17.8 half-PPR points to RBs per week, which ranks as the seventh-fewest in the NFL. The 27-year-old Singletary just hasn't had any standalone fantasy value since rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr. took over the lead role in New York's backfield earlier this year. Singletary hasn't seen double-digit carries since Week 4 and has a combined 33 rushing attempts for 136 yards (4.12 yards per tote) and only one touchdown in seven games since Week 7. At best, he's a handcuff option for Tracy and should be left on benches in Week 15.
New York Giants kicker Graham Gano has struggled with consistency this season, making just six of eight field goal attempts (75%) across six games, including a long of 50 yards. In Week 14 against the Saints, Gano converted a 43-yard field goal in the first half but had a critical 35-yard attempt blocked, costing the Giants a chance to force overtime. In Week 15, Gano faces a Ravens team allowing 24.5 points per game (24th in the league), which could present scoring opportunities if the Giants' offense can move the ball. However, with limited volume, Gano is a risky fantasy play and best left on the bench unless you're in dire need of a kicker.
