New York Giants coach Brian Daboll says he’s going with Tommy DeVito as QB1 to “create a spark” after he was a healthy scratch for 10 games.

DeVito, no matter how much fans try to wish it into existence, is not the answer. The narrative that the Giants needs these final seven games to evaluate him is absurd. They know exactly what they have in the former Don Bosco starter, which is a capable backup who can keep a team afloat in the short term when pressed into duty.

Daniel Jones’ time as starting quarterback for the Giants is over less than two years into the four-year $160 million contract he signed in March 2023. Sources confirmed to Newsday that Tommy DeVito will start on Sunday against the Bucs. DeVito has been the third-string quarterback all season with Drew Lock serving as the backup.
