Tommy DeVito clears concussion protocol, will back up Drew Lock Sunday

Tommy DeVito won't be starting at quarterback against the Falcons on Sunday, but he will be available should the Giants need his services.

DeVito started last Sunday's loss to the Ravens, but was forced out of the game due to a concussion. Head coach Brian Daboll said at a Friday press conference that DeVito has cleared the concussion protocol and will be in uniform this weekend.

The Giants previously named Drew Lock as the starter for this week, so DeVito will serve as the backup. Lock missed the Ravens loss with heel and left elbow injuries.

While DeVito is good to go, the Giants will not have linebacker Bobby Okereke (back), guard Aaron Stinne (concussion) or LB Patrick Johnson (knee) after ruling them out on Friday.
