Who Should I Start? Jake Haener or Tommy Devito

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jake Haener started in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Tennessee Titans. The second-year pro completed 8-of-17 passes for 87 yards while also gaining six yards on a scramble. Haener was outplayed by rookie Spencer Rattler in a pivotal game for the backup quarterback job. The backup will likely be named this week with roster cutdown day on Tuesday. Haener finished the preseason with 270 passing yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions.

ESPN New York's Jordan Raanan reports that the New York Giants will keep three quarterbacks on their initial 53-man roster to begin the 2024 regular season, according to head coach Brian Daboll. It means that QB Tommy Devito will stick on the roster behind starter Daniel Jones and backup Drew Lock. DeVito has made the team after going 14-for-27 for 103 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the preseason finale last Saturday against the New York Jets. You can't blame the G-Men for keeping the 26-year-old signal-caller around with Jones coming off a torn ACL this year and with Lock hurting his hip in the preseason opener. The former undrafted free agent out of Illinois was forced into action last year because of Jones' injury, appearing in nine games (six starts) while throwing for 1,101 yards, eight touchdowns and three picks on his 178 pass attempts. DeVito is off the fantasy radar.
