The New York Giants will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium with hopes of creating a spark out of the bye week.

That spark will have to come via the Giants’ new QB1, Tommy DeVito, or as most Giants fans know him, “Tommy Cutlets.”

This, of course, comes following the decision by the Giants earlier this week to bench Daniel Jones and start DeVito instead of Drew Lock, who they signed in the offseason for $5 million. He has served as the backup quarterback all season.

The Giants come in well-rested off the bye week...

Being a head coach in the NFL these days is not an easy job. In fact, it’s one where the stress level is very high and the survival rate is very low.

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll is learning that firsthand. In his third season on the job, Daboll’s regular-season record is 17-26-1 (2-8 this season), and his seat is beginning to get hot despite reassurances from ownership.

This week, Daboll had to finally make the decision to bench starting quarterback Daniel Jones, a move that was not a surprise given how the Giants’ season has unfolded.

The backup quarterback spoke to the media following being passed up as the next QB in line for the New York Giants.

The New York Giants made major headlines this week when they announced that Tommy DeVito was taking over as the team’s starting quarterback.

In a rather unexpected turn of events, DeVito, who has been the Giants third-string quarterback all season, was selected to start over Drew Lock, who has been the backup to Daniel Jones. With DeVito leapfrogging Lock on the depth chart, Jones appears to be the team’s fourth quarterback at this point, as recently signed Tim...

The New York Giants new starting quarterback is excited for his opportunity.

Tommy DeVito is once again set to take over as the New York Giants ‘QB1,’ as “Tommy Cutlets” mania is set to take over East Rutherford starting this weekend.

After starting games a season ago, DeVito has served as the team’s third quarterback for the entire 2024 season up to this point. Now, DeVito is being thrust into the starting role for a second consecutive season, being the most popular Giants player to be interviewed by the media on Wednesday.

Here’s what DeVito had to say before his...

This could be a franchise-altering decision

The New York Giants made the expected move this week and benched Daniel Jones. And with Jones declared the third quarterback and the emergency quarterback in case both Tommy DeVito and Drew Lock get hurt in the same game, he’s probably taken his last snap as a Giant.

The decision to start Tommy DeVito wasn’t exactly expected, but it’s one that might appease the fans at home for the time being. And if DeVito can’t recapture the magic from weeks 11, 12, and 14 last year, the Giants will likely turn to Drew Lock....

It’s “a part of the business,” says Dexter Lawrence

New York Giants players on Wednesday reacted diplomatically to this week’s change from Daniel Jones to Tommy DeVito at quarterback.

With a crush of media in the locker room, the quarterback switch was of course the only question anyone really cared about.

“I haven’t seen discouragement, I haven’t seen guys fall apart, and that starts to happen first,” said Dexter Lawrence.

Lawrence, who entered the league with Jones in 2019, admitted to taking the news hard.

“Definitely hard, but I’ve been a part of this business, just like last...

The New York Giants returned to the practice field on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for a Week 12 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Before heading out into the unseasonably warm temperatures, head coach Brian Daboll took the podium to speak with reporters.

The good news is that linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux has been designated to return from injured reserve (IR) and had his 21-day practice window open. But Daboll expects him to return long before that, even indicating that he could play this Sunday.

“We’ll open up Kayvon’s window, so he’ll start,...

Jones looked like QB4 at Wednesday’s practice

Daniel Jones appeared to be QB4 for the New York Giants on Wednesday as they practiced in preparation for Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Jones, the starter when healthy since taking over for Eli Manning in 2019, was replaced this week by Tommy Devito.

Jones was fourth in line Wednesday in drills during the portion of practice open to media. DeVito, Drew Lock, and newly-signed practice squad quarterback Tim Boyle all went before the deposed former starter.

Retired New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning is on the Hall of Fame ballot for the first time since his retirement in 2019.

It’s the first year Manning is eligible and there have been calls for him to be a first-ballot Hall of Fame entrant to the most prestigious community in the NFL.

Hall of Fame voting has been underway for some months, and they’ve narrowed the field down to 17 semifinalists, including six first-time ballot players. Those six are Manning, Luke Kuechly, Terrell Suggs, Earl Thomas, Adam Vinatieri, and Marshall Yanda.

Manning, a two-time Super Bowl MVP, played for...

Less than 24 hours after heavily tweaking their practice squad, the New York Giants were back at it, signing tight end Jordan Murray.

As a player, Manning never found controversy — his HOF candidacy, though, is certainly that

A contentious back room debate over whether or not former New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning will be a first-ballot Pro Football Hall of Famer moved one step closer this week as Manning was selected as one of 25 semifinalists for the Hall of Fame Class of 2025.

This is Manning’s first year of Hall of Fame eligibiity. Six other first-time eligible players also reached the semifinal stage. They are linebacker Luke Kuechly, Eli Manning, defensive end Terrell Suggs, safety Earl Thomas, placekicker Adam Vinatieri...
