The New York Giants can have at the least one quarterback on their roster coming into the brand new league 12 months, simply not the one most followers hoped for.
Per NFL Media’s Mike Garafolo, the Giants have re-signed third-string signal-caller Tommy DeVito.
The New Jersey native and his Italian heritage-inspired landing celebration turned a fan favourite in 2023 when he gained three consecutive video games for the workforce in then-starter Daniel Jones’ absence as a result of harm.
“He’s a neighborhood legend round right here,” head coach Brian Daboll told reporters in 2023 when DeVito displayed his flashes of brilliance.
Nonetheless, followers rapidly soured on his quarter-hour of fame when he could not persistently play like a starter, in the end costing the workforce a prime draft decide within the 2024 NFL Draft.
DeVito, 26, was an undrafted free agent out of Illinois. He has recorded 1,358 passing yards and 9 whole touchdowns in two seasons with the Giants.
After Jones was launched in late November 2024, DeVito cut up passing duties with backup Drew Lock. “Tommy Cutlets” started just two games, each losses, and failed to seek out the endzone every time.
New York is anticipated to draft a rookie QB within the 2025 NFL Draft, nevertheless it has additionally been linked to impending veteran free agent Aaron Rodgers to reboot its stagnant offense.
Meaning DeVito will doubtless return to his typical third-string function subsequent season and function an emergency possibility for Daboll.
Followers most likely will not see a lot of him on the sphere at MetLife Stadium in 2025. And in the event that they do, then one thing has gone fallacious…once more.
