Tommy DeVito is inactive for the Giants’ visit to the Dallas Cowboys because of a sore throwing arm, leaving Drew Lock as the Thanksgiving Day starter for New York. DeVito started last weekend in place of the benched and subsequently released Daniel Jones and was anticipating a return to the site of his first career start for the Giants last year.

Lock has been the backup throughout his first season with the Giants, but coach Brian Daboll went with the fan favorite DeVito, who had been the third QB, after deciding to bench Jones. The 28-year-old Lock was a second-round draft pick by Denver in 2019. He started 21 of his 24 games over three seasons with the Broncos, going 8-13. He was 1-1 as the Seattle starter last season when Geno Smith was sidelined by a groin injury.
