Drew Lock is expected to start at quarterback for the New York Giants against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday after missing a game due to a heel injury.
After missing a game due to a heel injury, Drew Lock is projected to return as the quarterback when the New York Giants face the Falcons in Atlanta on Sunday. Coach Brian Daboll stated on Wednesday that Lock has recovered and will start as the Giants (2-12) aim to break a franchise-record-tying nine-game losing streak. New York has experienced instability at the quarterback position since benching and subsequently releasing Daniel Jones following a bye week.
Tommy DeVito started against Tampa Bay on November 24 and suffered a right forearm injury late in the 30-7 loss. Lock started and lost against Dallas on Thanksgiving and in a 14-11 decision against New Orleans, a game where he sustained a heel and elbow injury but completed. DeVito returned this past weekend against Baltimore but sustained a concussion late in the first half of the 35-14 loss. Recently signed Tim Boyle played the remainder of the game. 'You go out there and do the best you can,' Daboll said regarding the quarterback uncertainty this past month. 'Prepare the guys. The three of those guys work hard. Try to take in the game plan. Go out there and practice. So, they all got to be ready.' DeVito remains in the concussion protocol. Daboll believes he could be ready to serve as the backup on Sunday against the Falcons (7-7), who are also making a quarterback change. Rookie Michael Penix Jr. is replacing Kirk Cousins.
