Who Should I Start? Mike White or Tommy DeVito

Saturday, August 9, 7:27 PM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Mike White came out of the gates slowly but finished strong in a 34-25 preseason-opening loss to the New York Giants on Saturday. White, who's competing with Mitchell Trubisky for the backup role behind Josh Allen, took over after halftime and missed on his first four attempts. Tight ends Jackson Hawes and Zach Davidson each dropped a pass, but White was unfazed. He went on to complete eight of his last nine throws to finish 8-for-13 for 112 yards and two touchdowns. White rolled to his right to find wide receiver KJ Hamler in the end zone for a 39-yard score on a fourth-and-four play and later dumped off a seven-yard TD to running back Darrynton Evans. It was a good day for White, a former New York Jet and Miami Dolphin, but it came after Trubisky held his own in the first half. The two will continue a wide-open battle for the No. 2 job against the Chicago Bears on Aug. 17.

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.
