The New York Giants are regrouping after a tough loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and preparing to face the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving. However, they will be without their starting quarterback as Tommy DeVito is dealing with a right forearm injury. DeVito is listed as questionable for the game, with Drew Lock set to start and Tim Boyle as the backup.
Giants head coach Brian Daboll expressed hope that DeVito will be able to play on Thursday but it is not certain. DeVito sustained several hard hits during the previous game, being sacked four times and hit a total of nine times. Despite briefly leaving the game in the fourth quarter, he returned after missing just one snap.
During the last possession against the Buccaneers, DeVito briefly left the field after an incompletion to Jalin Hyatt and was replaced by Lock. After a short completion, DeVito returned for third down but was sacked for a loss. Despite the challenges, DeVito completed 21 of his 31 pass attempts for 189 yards during the game.
Lock, who has significant starting experience with 23 career starts and a record of 9-14, will step in as the starting quarterback for the Giants. He has been the primary backup throughout the season and will now have the opportunity to lead the team against the Cowboys.
The Giants will be looking to bounce back from their recent loss and secure a win on Thanksgiving. With DeVito’s status uncertain, the team will rely on Lock to take charge on the field. Despite the challenges they have faced, the Giants remain determined to put up a strong performance and come out victorious in their upcoming game against the Cowboys.
