Giants-Cowboys inactive: Tommy DeVito will not play against Cowboys

Quarterback Tommy DeVito is not expected to play for the New York Giants on Thursday due to a right (throwing) forearm injury, Adam Schefter reports. Drew Lock, the Giants’ third starting quarterback in as many games, is expected to start against the Dallas Cowboys.

Lock, who was signed this offseason as Jones’ backup, was bypassed for DeVito last week after the Giants benched and ultimately released Jones. The Giants didn’t show much offense on Sunday in a 30-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

If DeVito can’t play and Lock starts, the backup quarterback would be journeyman Tim Boyle. Boyle replaced Daniel Jones on the 53-man roster when Jones was waived last week.

The Giants will also be without starting left tackle Jermaine Eluemunor, who suffered a quad injury against the Buccaneers, and cornerback Deonte Banks, who has a rib injury. Journeyman Chris Hubbard will likely get the start in place of Eluemunor. The Giants signed cornerback Greg Stroman from the practice squad for help at cornerback.
