The New York Giants' chaotic quarterback situation took another unfortunate turn just a week before their Thanksgiving Day showdown against the Dallas Cowboys.
After the Giants benched Daniel Jones and then released him, Tommy DeVito made his first start of the season and threw for 189 yards in a 30-7 loss to the Buccaneers – but a forearm injury is expected to force the Giants to retire to switch to another starter Thursday.
Update on Tommy DeVito's injury
After suffering multiple hits in his first start last weekend – he was sacked four times – DeVito was listed as questionable to play this week due to a forearm injury. DeVito did not practice with the team on Wednesday and coach Brian Daboll said DeVito was “not 100 percent.”
How long will Tommy DeVito be out?
Given that DeVito was only listed as questionable, the Giants have an extended break until a Week 14 game on December 8th. It's possible DeVito returns next week against the Saints.
That could depend on Drew Lock's game against the Cowboys. Since DeVito is far from an established starter, it's possible that if Lock revitalizes the Giants' offense, he could be tabbed as the starter for the remainder of the season.
Giants QB depth chart
With DeVito likely out and Daniel Jones now gone and the Vikings practice squad in place, the Giants are likely left with just the starter Drew Lock and backup Tim Boyle.
