Tommy DeVito

DeVito cleared protocol and will back up Drew Lock as the NFL's worst quarterback room tries to make it through the last three weeks of the season.

Tommy DeVito won't be starting at quarterback against the Falcons on Sunday, but he will be available should the Giants need his services.

The Giants will go back to Lock as their starter after Tommy DeVito suffered a concussion in last week's loss. Lock's presence does not bode well for any of the Giants' playmakers, and he carries no legitimate fantasy upside of his own.

Giants QB Drew Lock will start Sunday's game vs. the Falcons, HC Brian Daboll said. QB Tommy DeVito is in concussion protocol, while Tim Boyle ... is Tim Boyle. Lock hasn't been any good this year, completing 51% of his passes at 4.6 yards per attempt with 0 TDs and 2 INTs. He at least targeted WR Malik Nabers 23 times on a 28.4% share in his two full games. Nabers caught 13 of those passes for 148 yards. He remains a fine WR2 play this week. Lock should be nowhere near fantasy lineups.

Tommy DeVito sustained a brain injury in Week 15 against the Ravens, opening the door for another Lock start in a miserable Giants season. Lock has been worse than usual as New York's starter, completing 50 percent of his pass attempts for zero touchdowns and two interceptions on 90 attempts. Lock's insertion into the New York lineup is bad news for Malik Nabers and the rest of the Giants pass catchers. Tim Boyle will likely serve as Lock's backup and could very well see playing time if (when) Lock struggles against Atlanta.
