The New York Giants, an intractable member of the NFL, discovered a hidden treasure in quarterback Tommy DeVito.
DeVito was propelled into the spotlight after the team’s primary quarterback, Tyrod Taylor, sustained a rib injury during their Week Eight match against the Jets.
Now, with the team on suspension before their crucial Week 14 faceoff, questions arise about who would command the team’s offense if both quarterbacks are declared fit to play.
Taylor has spent four subsequent weeks on injured reserve, and as per NFL regulations, can now make a legitimate comeback.
However, Giants head coach Brian Daboll remains noncommittal about Taylor’s possible return, stressing that the management has yet to make a decision regarding their starting quarterback once the team returns.
At a press conference preceding Week 14, Daboll mentioned that discussions about this very matter were in the nascent stages.
He stated,“We’re just getting started on that process now. We’ll have plenty of meetings tonight, tomorrow,” via SNY. This statement suggested the Giants are keeping all options open and are yet to settle on a definite choice.

DeVito, given his recent form, has made a compelling case to remain as the starting quarterback. Meanwhile, Taylor’s possible activation might signal a dilemma for the management regarding the optimal choice.
The final decision could have far-reaching implications for the team’s strategy, game planning, and their fans.
