Giants QB Tommy DeVito listed as inactive vs. Cowboys

New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito is listed as inactive for Thursday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys due to his forearm injury, and Drew Lock is expected to start in his place.

DeVito did not travel with the team to Dallas on Wednesday as he underwent further evaluation, the Giants said. However, the team said it expected him to travel to Dallas later Wednesday.

DeVito had some big hits in Sunday’s 30-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He made his first start of the season after the Giants released former starter Daniel Jones late last week.

The Giants now turn to Lock after passing on him following Jones’ benching for DeVito. Lock spent the first 10 weeks of the season as a backup, with DeVito as the third string/emergency quarterback.

Lock has a short week and no real practices to prepare for the meeting between NFC East rivals. He will also play behind an offensive line without the starting tackles. Andrew Thomas (foot) is on injured reserve and Jermaine Eluemunor (quad) was ruled out Wednesday.
