Today, NFL teams must trim their rosters down to 53 players before the start of the regular season, and the Giants have reduced their quarterback room to just three names.
Tommy DeVito is one of the casualties of this cut. Despite an encouraging performance in the final preseason game, the franchise’s management decided not to keep him.
The Giants will therefore begin the season with three quarterbacks: Russell Wilson, Jaxson Dart, and Jameis Winston.
The positive impression left by Tommy DeVito in his last game will likely draw interest from the 31 other NFL teams looking for depth at the position.
Signed in 2023 as an undrafted free agent, Tommy DeVito took part in 12 games over his first two seasons, including 8 as a starter, showing promising efficiency with 145 completions on 222 attempts—a 65.3% completion rate. He totaled 1,358 yards, threw 8 touchdowns against just 3 interceptions, and posted an overall passer rating of 88.4. His rookie year was the most notable, with 1,101 yards, 8 touchdowns, and a balanced 3–3 record as a starter.
In 2024, used more sporadically, he threw for 257 yards across three appearances, without touchdowns or interceptions, while also adding 32 rushing yards.
