Tommy DeVito's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

According to head coach Brian Daboll, New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito (forearm) will be the team's backup quarterback if healthy. Pat Leonard of the team reported the news. Per Daboll, DeVito "may be ready." New York is approaching their Week 14 contest against the New Orleans Saints with signal-caller Drew Lock as the team's QB1. As noted by the coach, it will be Lock's first full week of prep as the starter. With little upside surrounding the Giants' QB situation, fantasy managers should steer clear of it for now. Presently, the 26-year-old is little more than waiver-wire fodder in 2QB and superflex formats, while Lock is a low-end QB2.

New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito (forearm) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. The Giants designated DeVito as their emergency third quarterback, so he could technically get into the game if starter Drew Lock and backup Tim Boyle both suffer injuries and cannot return. In all likelihood, though, DeVito will spend the entirety of Thursday's game on the sideline. He could return to the starting lineup in Week 14, but Lock will also have a chance to prove the QB1 job belongs to him, especially if he leads the Giants to a divisional victory over the Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day.

New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito (forearm) is expected to be inactive for Thursday's game against the Dallas Cowboys, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Drew Lock will start at quarterback in DeVito's absence. The Giants are suddenly onto their third quarterback in three weeks, rotating through Daniel Jones (now with the Minnesota Vikings), DeVito, and Lock. Although there have been numerous conflicting reports about DeVito's injury status, fantasy managers can appreciate that we now have some clarification from Schefter. Assuming Lock is confirmed as the starter, he'll rank as a fantasy QB3 while keeping Malik Nabers and Tyrone Tracy Jr. in the WR2 and RB2 tiers, respectively.

New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito (forearm), who is officially questionable to play in Thursday's Thanksgiving game against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys, is not being ruled out yet. A report earlier suggested that DeVito was viewed as more of a long shot to play through his questionable tag in Week 13. However, Rapoport reports that DeVito will see how he feels when he wakes up on Thursday and will test his injured right forearm by throwing. The 26-year-old didn't travel with the team to Dallas in order to undergo more testing on his arm, but he will travel on his own. It's shaping up to be a game-time decision on Thursday as to whether DeVito makes a second straight start. If he cannot go, it will be Drew Lock leading New York's offense. Either way, it's not a pretty situation for the Giants' offense, and fantasy managers should treat DeVito and Lock as desperation QB2s in superflex leagues.

Updating a previous report, New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito (forearm) is considered a long shot to be able to play on Thanksgiving on Thursday against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys after sitting out Wednesday's walkthrough practice, according to a source. It puts backup Drew Lock in line to start his first game of the year after the Giants waived Daniel Jones last Friday. DeVito is dealing with a right-forearm injury and is undergoing further evaluation. DeVito predictably fell flat leading the offense in the 30-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12, so if Lock is an improvement in Week 13 versus Dallas, he could take over the starting gig for the G-Men the rest of the way in 2024. The 28-year-old Lock completed his only pass attempt for three yards last Sunday against Tampa and will now be in play as a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues this week against Dallas.
