Tommy DeVito isn’t celebrating his role as a third-stringer this time around.
One year after he was an undrafted rookie who just wanted to earn his place in the NFL and instead wound up becoming one of the league’s biggest stories and a cult hero for local Italians, DeVito is trying to play his way into forcing the Giants to really consider his future with the organization.
After losing Tyrod Taylor to the Jets in free agency, the Giants signed Drew Lock to a one-year, $5 million contract to be Daniel Jones’ backup, without much consideration given to letting DeVito be No. 2 on the depth chart.General manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll have not carried three quarterbacks on the active roster during their first two seasons.
“If they decide to and I get scooped up, I don’t get to make that decision afterwards, if somebody grabs me, ‘No, I want to stay here.’ It’s everything for the front office.”DeVito was 3-3 as a starter last season, completing 64 percent of his passes for 1,101 yards with eight touchdowns and three interceptions.
