Giants' Tommy DeVito: Clears concussion protocol
Tommy DeVito cleared concussion protocol and will be the New York Giants' No. 2 QB for Sunday's game at Atlanta, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.Drew Lock (heel) returned to full practice participation earlier in the week and has been named as the Week 16 starter.

Giants' Tommy DeVito: Stays limited Thursday
Tommy DeVito (concussion) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Dan Salomone of the New York Giants' official site reports.While DeVito maintained his activity level from one day prior, coach Brian Daboll told Salomone earlier Thursday that the second-year signal-caller was expected to increase his activity level as he progressed through the concussion protocol. Daboll added, "I think he'll be available" Sunday in Atlanta, but even if DeVito gains clearance from an independent neurologist and is active this weekend, he'll be the backup to Drew Lock (heel/left elbow), who practiced fully Thursday. Tim Boyle is on hand to handle No. 2 QB duties if DeVito isn't able to.

Giants' Tommy DeVito: Limited Wednesday, back to backup
Tommy DeVito (concussion) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.DeVito's ability to practice in any capacity to begin Week 16 prep is an encouraging sign, after he exited late in the first half of this past Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Ravens due to a concussion. The quarterback still needs to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in order to dress for Sunday's game against the Falcons. Even if DeVito is healthy enough to play, head coach Brian Daboll said that the second-year signal-caller would fill a backup role behind Drew Lock (heel/left elbow), who is expected to start this weekend after sitting out against Baltimore, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. Lock was also a limited participant in practice Wednesday.

Giants' Tommy DeVito: Participating in drills
Tommy DeVito (concussion) is taking part in drills during Wednesday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.After sustaining a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Ravens, DeVito has already made enough progress through the five-step protocol to take part in on-field work. Though the extent of his activity in practice won't be revealed until the New York Giants release their first Week 16 injury report later Wednesday, DeVito appears to have a good shot at being available this Sunday against Atlanta. If DeVito is available this weekend, head coach Brian Daboll said that the second-year signal-caller will work as the backup to Drew Lock (heel/elbow), who appears on track to return from a one-game absence, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com.

Giants' Tommy DeVito: Being checked for concussion
Tommy DeVito is under evaluation for a concussion during Sunday's game against the Ravens, Dan Salomone of the New York Giants' official site reports.DeVito was getting a spot start for Drew Lock (heel/elbow) in Week 15, completing 10 of 13 passes for 68 yards and gaining no yards on his only carry. He was on the receiving end of a roughing the passer penalty late in the first half, which forced him to the locker room at the end of that drive. Backup Tim Boyle kneeled down for the final snap before halftime, at which point the Giants announced DeVito was being checked for a head injury. If DeVito is diagnosed with a concussion, Boyle will lead New York's offense the rest of the way, while Lock also is available as the emergency third quarterback.

Giants' Tommy DeVito: Trending toward Week 15 start
New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that Tommy DeVito is expected to start Sunday's game against the Ravens, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.Just two days ago, Daboll noted that Drew Lock would remain the team's starting quarterback if healthy, but the signal-caller is tending to a heel injury that has confined him to a walking boot and will prevent him from practicing Wednesday. While Daboll hasn't officially ruled out Lock for being available as an emergency backup Sunday, the Giants will turn the starting role back over to DeVito, who previously directed the offense in a Week 12 loss to the Buccaneers after incumbent Daniel Jones was cut. While DeVito had a few good moments over his six starts in 2023, he faded down the stretch last season and struggled to move the offense in the 30-7 loss to Tampa Bay, completing 21 of 31 pass attempts for 189 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions to go with 32 yards on seven carries. Though DeVito brings above-average rushing ability at quarterback, his substandard skills as a passer make him a low-end fantasy option in Week 15, especially now that every team has already had its bye week.

Giants' Tommy DeVito: Full practice Thursday
Tommy DeVito (right forearm) practiced fully Thursday, Dan Salomone of the New York Giants' official site reports.DeVito emerged from Week 12 action with a sore right forearm, which left him as the Giants' emergency third quarterback last Thursday at Dallas. On Wednesday, coach Brian Daboll announced that Drew Lock would make a second start in a row, while at the same time stating that DeVito may be healthy enough to serve as his backup Sunday versus the Saints, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News. Considering DeVito practiced without limitations Thursday, he seems poised to take on such a role this weekend, but it remains to be seen if that comes to pass.

Giants' Tommy DeVito: Won't start Week 14
New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that Tommy DeVito (forearm) may be ready to handle No. 2 quarterback duties in Sunday's game versus the Saints, but Drew Lock will make a second straight start this weekend, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.DeVito will be a limited participant in practice Wednesday due to his forearm injury, per Paul Schwartz of the New York Post. The extent of DeVito's practice activity leading up to Sunday's contest will ultimately determine whether he works as Lock's backup over Tim Boyle, or is again relegated to emergency No. 3 quarterback duties. In his lone start this season -- a 30-7 loss to the Buccaneers in Week 12 -- DeVito carried seven times for 32 yards and completed 21 of 31 pass attempts for just 189 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions.

Giants' Tommy DeVito: Inactive, but emergency third QB
Tommy DeVito (forearm) is listed as inactive Thursday at Dallas but will be available as the emergency third quarterback, Dan Salomone of the New York Giants' official site reports.On Tuesday, the Giants tacked on DeVito to the injury report as limited due to a sore right forearm, which he followed up with an absence from Wednesday's walkthrough and left him questionable for Thursday's game. He didn't travel with his teammates to Dallas and instead stayed behind to undergo an MRI on his forearm, keeping the door ajar for him to start Week 13, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. However, both Rapoport and Adam Schefter of ESPN reported earlier Thursday that DeVito wasn't in line to play, and that has been confirmed. Drew Lock will get the spot start in place of DeVito while Tim Boyle serves as the backup.
