Who Should I Start? Kyle Allen or Tommy DeVito

Saturday, August 9, 8:45 AM

Detroit Lions quarterback Kyle Allen completed seven of eight pass attempts for 120 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions in his team's 17-10 preseason win over the Atlanta Falcons on Friday night. He entered the game in the second quarter, replacing Hendon Hooker at quarterback. Allen and Hooker are competing for the backup quarterback job in Detroit behind Jared Goff. Both players struggled in the team's preseason opener against the Los Angeles Chargers, but Allen significantly outplayed Hooker against Atlanta. The Lions' usage of their two reserve quarterbacks will be something to monitor in the team's third preseason game against the Miami Dolphins on August 16.

The New York Giants officially re-signed quarterback Tommy DeVito on Saturday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. As things currently stand early in the offseason, DeVito is the only signal-caller that the Giants have under contract. That will surely change, though, with most folks believing that the Giants will not only sign or trade for a veteran QB but also draft one in April. The G-Men have the third overall selection in the 2025 NFL draft, with some of the belief that they could be aggressive in a potential trade up to the No. 1 overall spot with the Tennessee Titans to take Miami's Cam Ward. The Seahawks' trade of Geno Smith to the Raiders on Friday now puts Sam Darnold potentially in play as a veteran option for New York to pursue. DeVito, 26, made a little noise in six starts for the Giants in 2023 but played in only three games (two starts) last year and threw for 257 yards with no TDs or picks. He'll be a backup in 2025.
