New York Giants DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito (forearm) will test his right forearm in practice on Tuesday but will be listed as a limited participant. Backup Drew Lock will also get some repetitions as the team prepares to face the division-rival Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving on Thursday. Head coach Brian Daboll said he's "hopeful" that DeVito plays in Week 13, but it's not 100% that he'll be active. DeVito came out of the Week 12 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat up, but now we know specifically that it's his throwing forearm that is bothering him. The 26-year-old wasn't listed on the injury report on Monday but is now up in the air for this week. Either way, the Giants offense might be in trouble against a Dallas defense that surprised by beating the Washington Commanders on Sunday. Whoever is starting under center for the G-Men on Thanksgiving will be a desperation QB2 in superflex leagues.

New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito (undisclosed) did not appear on the team's initial injury report for Week 13. DeVito was banged up during Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and had to leave the game for one play, but he returned to the contest and is now trending in the right direction for Thursday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. DeVito did struggle in his first start of the 2024 campaign, completing 21 of his 31 pass attempts for 189 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero turnovers. He took four sacks but did make up some ground with his 32 rushing yards. The 26-year-old ranks as a fantasy QB3 for Week 13, even with a favorable matchup against the Cowboys on tap.

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson (back) was a limited participant during Monday's walkthrough. Johnson was dealing with a back issue throughout the week but he still managed to suit up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Johnson hauled in three of his six targets for 39 yards in the loss. The fact Johnson was limited could be the Giants being cautious on a short week. They have a quick turnaround with the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving. Johnson has seen more involvement lately with six targets in three straight games. Despite that, Johnson has finished with less than 40 receiving yards in two of those games. He'll be a low-end streaming option ahead of this Thanksgiving matchup.

The Denver Broncos waived tight end Greg Dulcich on Monday. The Broncos took Dulcich in the third round out of UCLA in 2022, and he's had trouble staying on the field early in his NFL career due to injuries. He played in 10 games his rookie season and was never a big part of head coach Sean Payton's offense. Dulcich has played in only six games the last two seasons and was a healthy scratch in each of the Broncos' last eight games this year. In the first four games, the 24-year-old tight end caught only five of his 12 targets for 28 scoreless yards for the Broncos. While a team may not claim Dulcich off waivers, someone is likely to eventually scoop him up off the open market as tight end depth for the rest of the season. Perhaps Dulcich will have a shot to re-enter the fantasy picture in a different situation.

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said after the Week 12 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday that quarterback Tommy Devito will make the start in Week 13 on Thanksgiving on Thursday against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys "if he's healthy." DeVito got the wind knocked out of him on the final drive of the game in the fourth quarter and left for a play before coming back in. After returning, he took another big hit and didn't look great leaving the stadium. The 26-year-old signal-caller probably won't do much in practice from Monday through Wednesday, but we'd expect him to be out there against Dallas after going 21-for-31 for 189 yards with no TDs or interceptions in the 30-7 blowout loss to the Bucs. Dallas' defense has been disappointing in 2024, but they put up a spirited effort in the upset win over Washington on Sunday. DeVito will remain a desperation QB2 in superflex leagues if he plays.
