Tommy DeVito didn’t want to go there quite yet.
But it’s possible the Giants are his team to quarterback the rest of the season if the right knee injury starter Daniel Jones suffered in Sunday’sturns out to be what many in the organization fear it is, which is season-ending.
If Jones isn’t back, though, the team is most likely to turn to the 25-year-old undrafted rookie from Jersey by way of Don Bosco Prep, Syracuse and Illinois. A week ago, in the loss to the Jets, DeVito came off the bench to finish the game after No. 2 quarterback Tyrod Taylor suffered a rib injury and Giants head coach Brian Daboll let him throw only seven passes on a rainy, miserable day at MetLife Stadium.
“He did great,’’ Giants running back Saquon Barkley said. “He’s a natural-born leader. He’s a true competitor. I’ve got a lot of respect for him.’’ “We were down, so it wasn’t a reason to celebrate, but that drive and the drive before, you really saw us move the ball and the offense started to click at that point, but unfortunately, we clicked too late,” DeVito said.
