DeVito saw action in three contests during the regular season, completing 31 of 44 passes for 257 yards, zero touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also carried eight times for 32 yards. DeVito made a very brief appearance Week 14 against New Orleans, taking one offensive snap without attempting a pass. His other two games were starts, and though he was relatively accurate with a 70 percent completion rate and didn't get picked off, he was quite conservative in averaging just 5.8 yards per attempt. DeVito's campaign was much less boisterous than the year prior, when he enjoyed a brief Cinderella run as a rookie in a fill-in role for Daniel Jones. DeVito will be an exclusive right free agent upon the beginning of the offseason, and the Giants are expected to bring him back, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. It's unclear where he'll stand in the QB pecking order, however, with both Drew Lock and Tim Boyle set to become unrestricted free agents and New York widely expected to upgrade at the position through trade, free agency, and/or the draft.
DeVito cleared concussion protocol and will be the No. 2 QB for Sunday's game at Atlanta, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports. Drew Lock (heel) returned to full practice participation earlier in the week and has been named as the Week 16 starter. His absence allowed DeVito to start Sunday's eventual 35-14 loss to the Ravens, with Tim Boyle then taking over for the second half after DeVito got concussed.
DeVito (concussion) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. While DeVito maintained his activity level from one day prior, coach Brian Daboll told Salomone earlier Thursday that the second-year signal-caller was expected to increase his activity level as he progressed through the concussion protocol. Daboll added, "I think he'll be available" Sunday in Atlanta, but even if DeVito gains clearance from an independent neurologist and is active this weekend, he'll be the backup to Drew Lock (heel/left elbow), who practiced fully Thursday. Tim Boyle is on hand to handle No. 2 QB duties if DeVito isn't able to.
DeVito (concussion) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports. It's encouraging that DeVito was available in any capacity after exiting late in the first half of this past Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Ravens due to a concussion. DeVito still needs to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in order to dress for Sunday's game against the Falcons. Even if DeVito's healthy enough to play, he's expected to back up Drew Lock (heel/left elbow), per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. Lock was a limited participant in practice Wednesday after missing the loss to Baltimore.
DeVito (concussion) is taking part in drills during Wednesday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. After sustaining a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Ravens, DeVito has already made enough progress through the five-step protocol to take part in on-field work. Though the extent of his activity in practice won't be revealed until the Giants release their first Week 16 injury report later Wednesday, DeVito appears to have a good shot at being available this Sunday against Atlanta. If DeVito is available this weekend, head coach Brian Daboll said that the second-year signal-caller will work as the backup to Drew Lock (heel/elbow), who appears on track to return from a one-game absence, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com.
DeVito won't return to Sunday's game versus the Ravens due to a concussion, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. Prior to exiting late in the first half, DeVito completed 10 of 13 passes for 68 yards and had one carry for no yards. With a concussion confirmed for DeVito, Tim Boyle has taken over the Giants offense, while Drew Lock (heel/elbow), who is inactive Sunday, serves as the emergency third quarterback.
DeVito is under evaluation for a concussion during Sunday's game against the Ravens, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. DeVito was getting a spot start for Drew Lock (heel/elbow) in Week 15, completing 10 of 13 passes for 68 yards and gaining no yards on his only carry. He was on the receiving end of a roughing the passer penalty late in the first half, which forced him to the locker room at the end of that drive. Backup Tim Boyle kneeled down for the final snap before halftime, at which point the Giants announced DeVito was being checked for a head injury. If DeVito is diagnosed with a concussion, Boyle will lead New York's offense the rest of the way, while Lock also is available as the emergency third quarterback.
Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that DeVito is expected to start Sunday's game against the Ravens, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. Just two days ago, Daboll noted that Drew Lock would remain the team's starting quarterback if healthy, but the signal-caller is tending to a heel injury that has confined him to a walking boot and will prevent him from practicing Wednesday. While Daboll hasn't officially ruled out Lock for being available as an emergency backup Sunday, the Giants will turn the starting role back over to DeVito, who previously directed the offense in a Week 12 loss to the Buccaneers after incumbent Daniel Jones was cut. While DeVito had a few good moments over his six starts in 2023, he faded down the stretch last season and struggled to move the offense in the 30-7 loss to Tampa Bay, completing 21 of 31 pass attempts for 189 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions to go with 32 yards on seven carries. Though DeVito brings above-average rushing ability at quarterback, his substandard skills as a passer make him a low-end fantasy option in Week 15, especially now that every team has already had its bye week.
DeVito (right forearm) practiced fully Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. DeVito emerged from Week 12 action with a sore right forearm, which left him as the Giants' emergency third quarterback last Thursday at Dallas. On Wednesday, coach Brian Daboll announced that Drew Lock would make a second start in a row, while at the same time stating that DeVito may be healthy enough to serve as his backup Sunday versus the Saints, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News. Considering DeVito practiced without limitations Thursday, he seems poised to take on such a role this weekend, but it remains to be seen if that comes to pass.
