The Giants' New QB: Why Tommy DeVito Gets the Nod Over Drew Lock

Ever wondered why the Giants chose Tommy DeVito over Drew Lock to replace Daniel Jones? Let's break it down. The Giants are looking ahead, focusing on the future. They think Lock might not stick around next season, so DeVito is their best bet. Lock will back him up, while Jones now sits in third place. DeVito could be a backup or even a starter in 2025, and the Giants want to find out.

The season isn’t great for the Giants, sitting at 2-8. These remaining games will help them decide who's in for 2025. Lock’s preseason injury didn’t help his case, limiting how much the Giants could evaluate him. On the other hand, DeVito showed promise last year, going 3-3 as a starter. He even played a part in why the Giants didn't draft certain quarterbacks this year. DeVito threw for over 1, 100 yards and eight touchdowns last season. If he does well, he could be a cheap backup or starter for 2025, or even a trade option. His first start this season? Against the Buccaneers at MetLife Stadium. DeVito is confident, saying he feels good about his chances. He plans to keep working hard and make the most of his opportunities.
