Claimed by Pats
The Patriots were awarded a waiver claim for DeVito on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The Giants' offseason moves dropped DeVito to fourth on the depth chart, ultimately leading the team to waive him, but he'll now be the No. 3 QB in New England behind Drake Maye and Joshua Dobbs. It isn't out of the question for DeVito to challenge Dobbs for the No. 2 spot as the year progresses.

Can't make final roster
The Giants waived DeVito on Tuesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Analysis: New York won't carry DeVito on the 53-man roster with all of Russell Wilson, Jaxson Dart and Jameis Winston already guaranteed spots, and a fourth QB seeming superfluous given the team's needs across the board. Across three regular-season appearances (two starts) in 2024, DeVito completed 31 of 44 passes for 257 yards with zero touchdowns while rushing eight times for 32 yards. The Giants will likely hope DeVito makes it back to the practice squad, but a QB-needy team could claim him on waivers.

Lights up second half
DeVito completed 17 of 20 passes for 198 yards and three touchdowns in Thursday's 42-10 preseason win over the Patriots.
Analysis: DeVito may have earned himself a job Thursday night, be it in New York or elsewhere. The Giants might even consider keeping four QBs on their initial regular-season roster, with DeVito seemingly stuck behind Russell Wilson, Jaxson Dart and Jameis Winston. Alternatively, they could seek a trade for Winston or DeVito, or try to sneak DeVito onto the practice squad.

Staying with Big Blue
The Giants re-signed DeVito on Saturday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: DeVito appeared in three games (including two starts) during the 2024 regular season and completed 31 of 44 passes for 257 yards with zero touchdowns while adding eight carries for 32 yards. With Drew Lock and Tim Boyle expected to hit free agency, DeVito is the only QB currently under contract with the Giants, though New York is expected to sign a veteran quarterback like Aaron Rodgers or Sam Darnold in free agency or target younger options like Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders in the 2025 NFL…read more

Plays in three games in 2024
DeVito saw action in three contests during the regular season, completing 31 of 44 passes for 257 yards, zero touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also carried eight times for 32 yards.
Analysis: DeVito made a very brief appearance Week 14 against New Orleans, taking one offensive snap without attempting a pass. His other two games were starts, and though he was relatively accurate with a 70 percent completion rate and didn't get picked off, he was quite conservative in averaging just 5.8 yards per attempt. DeVito's campaign was much less boisterous than the year prior, when he enjoyed a brief Cinderella run as a rookie in a fill-in role for Daniel Jones. DeVito will be an exclusive…read more

Clears concussion protocol
DeVito cleared concussion protocol and will be the Giants' No. 2 QB for Sunday's game at Atlanta, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Drew Lock (heel) returned to full practice participation earlier in the week and has been named as the Week 16 starter. Lock's absence allowed DeVito to start this past Sunday's eventual 35-14 loss to the Ravens, with Tim Boyle then taking over for the second half after DeVito got concussed.

DeVito (concussion) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: While DeVito maintained his activity level from one day prior, coach Brian Daboll told Salomone earlier Thursday that the second-year signal-caller was expected to increase his activity level as he progressed through the concussion protocol. Daboll added, "I think he'll be available" Sunday in Atlanta, but even if DeVito gains clearance from an independent neurologist and is active this weekend, he'll be the backup to Drew Lock (heel/left elbow), who practiced fully Thursday.

Limited Wednesday, back to backup

Analysis: DeVito's ability to practice in any capacity to begin Week 16 prep is an encouraging sign, after he exited late in the first half of this past Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Ravens due to a concussion. The quarterback still needs to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in order to dress for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Though the extent of his activity in practice won't be revealed until the Giants release their first Week 16 injury report later Wednesday, DeVito appears to have a good shot at being available this Sunday against Atlanta.

Analysis: DeVito will be a limited participant in practice Wednesday due to his forearm injury, per Paul Schwartz of the New York Post. The extent of DeVito's practice activity leading up to Sunday's contest will ultimately determine whether he works as Lock's backup over Tim Boyle, or is again relegated to emergency No. 3 quarterback duties.

Analysis: DeVito was banged up late in Sunday's loss to the Bucs and had to come out of the game, but coach Brian Daboll said afterward that he was hopeful DeVito would be able to start Thursday. It would seem that will be the case, as DeVito avoided the injury report altogether Monday. The Dallas defense is likely a better one-for-one fantasy bet than DeVito in Week 13.

Analysis: Though Daboll didn't go into specifics about what type of injury DeVito might be dealing with coming out Sunday's 30-7 loss to the Buccaneers, the second-year quarterback gave way to backup Drew Lock for one snap in the fourth quarter after he appeared to have the wind knocked out of him following a hit.

Inconsistent in lopsided loss
DeVito completed 21 of 31 passes for 189 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and added seven rushes for 32 yards in the Giants' 30-7 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: DeVito managed to stay away from any turnovers, but he took four sacks and wasn't able to lead the Giants to any points until the game was out of reach in the fourth quarter. DeVito did eventually demonstrate some solid chemistry with top two receivers Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson, with whom he connected for 11 completions and 111 yards.

With six teams on bye Week 12, DeVito represents an option for fantasy managers in QB-heavy formats, as well as those in need of a short-term lineup plug in.

Plays entire preseason finale
DeVito completed 14 of 27 passes for 103 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Saturday's 10-6 preseason loss to the Jets. He added five rushes for 48 yards.
Analysis: The Giants opted not to play Daniel Jones or Drew Lock (hip), leaving DeVito to play the entire contest. He turned in an uneven performance, as he was sacked eight times and averaged an abysmal 3.8 yards per attempt. However, DeVito showed some resiliency and managed to move the ball with short passes and scrambles to lead two scoring drives. He'll enter the season as nothing better than the third quarterback on the depth chart, though it's unclear if he'll survive cutdown day.
