Giants QB Tommy DeVito exited for a concussion check in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Saints. He took a big shot to the back at the end of a scramble and slammed his head against the turf. We'll update DeVito's status when we know more. He's been replaced by QB Tyrod Taylor.
Update: DeVito returned for the start of the second half.
Giants QB Tommy DeVito was benched at halftime of Monday's game vs. the Eagles. He produced just three points and 55 passing yards in the game's first 30 minutes. After a few surprisingly competent starts, DeVito has bottomed out the past two weeks. QB Tyrod Taylor will play the second half vs. Philadelphia and figures to start the final two games of the season. He should bring a bit more stability to the Giants' offense.
Giants HC Brian Daboll said Tuesday that QB Tommy DeVito will start Monday night's game vs. the Packers. QB Tyrod Taylor (ribs) was designated to return from IR and will practice this week. It's unclear if the Giants are just sticking with DeVito or if Taylor isn't cleared for game action yet. DeVito has played better than expected the past three games, completing 63% of his passes at 6.7 yards per attempt with six TDs vs. one INT. He's finished QB18, QB7, and QB20 in fantasy points those three weeks and is in the mix in 2-QB and Superflex leagues. DeVito has also taken a sack on a whopping 20.4% of his dropbacks over the past three games, so the Packers DST makes for a nice Week 14 spot start.
Giants HC Brian Daboll announced Wednesday that QB Tommy DeVito will start Sunday at Dallas. It's the announcement we all expected and yet no one was waiting for. The Giants' offense has been terrible even with experienced NFL QBs. The only player worth any fantasy consideration there is RB Saquon Barkley, and we have him projected to disappoint vs. expected production this week. QB Matt Barkley will back up DeVito.
