The Giants confirmed reports Monday morning that Daniel Jones is out as the team’s starting quarterback.

Head coach Brian Daboll told reporters during a video conference that Jones has been relegated to third on the depth chart. Tommy DeVito will take over as starter, while Drew Lock will remain the team’s backup.

Daboll touched on DeVito’s play last season and explained that he is looking for a similar “spark” by turning to the second-year player as the starter. He added that it was not a reflection of what Lock has or hasn’t done since joining the team this season.

“It was more about what I think Tommy gave us,” Daboll said.

DeVito started six games and played nine games for the Giants last season. He was 114 of 178 for 1,101 yards, eight touchdowns and three interceptions in those games. His first start of the season will be next Sunday against the Buccaneers.
