Giants' Tommy DeVito loses starting job
New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito will not start in Week 17 against the Los Angeles Rams, per head coach Brian Daboll.
What It Means:
DeVito has been benched for Tyrod Taylor after starting the past six games. The undrafted rookie avoided turning the ball over, but he failed to score a touchdown in either of his last two starts. Taylor will likely be a slight upgrade for the Giants' offense.
DeVito is averaging negative-0.16 and Taylor is averaging 0.09 Passing Net Expected Points per dropback this season. He has completed 112 of 176 pass attempts for 1,087 yards, 8 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions. DeVito also has 36 carries for 195 yards and a touchdown.
