There it is. New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll announced Drew Lock, not Tommy DeVito, will be his starting quarterback for Week 14’s home game with the New Orleans Saints. DeVito has been dealing with a forearm injury and the Giants clearly feel a healthy Lock gives them a better chance to win.
But Lock won’t be the only backup starting for Big Blue. Daboll added that the starting offensive tackles will likely be Josh Ezeudu and Chris Hubbard due to injuries. That’s a favorable matchup for the New Orleans defensive line.
Ironically, the Giants already cut the only QB on the roster with a win against the Saints: Daniel Jones, who led a fourth-quarter comeback to force overtime against them back in 2021. DeVito is 0-1 against New Orleans, but this will be Lock’s first start against the Black and Gold. Let’s see what he’s made of.
