Tommy DeVito Makes Foxboro Debut & Joins Patriots Quarterback Room

Tommy DeVito joins the Patriots to strengthen their quarterback depth after being cut by the Giants, despite showing promise with 1,103 passing yards and eight touchdowns last season.

  • On Thursday, the New England Patriots introduced Tommy DeVito at their Foxboro facility after claiming him off waivers following his release by the New York Giants on Tuesday; he joined team practice immediately.
  • After roster moves by the Giants adding Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston, and Jaxson Dart, DeVito lost his spot despite going 30-of-38 for 323 yards with four touchdowns and one interception last week.
  • DeVito's breakout run included starting six games in the 2023 season, going 3-3 while throwing for 1,101 yards and becoming a cult favorite with Giants fans due to his Cedar Grove, New Jersey roots.
  • The move gives the Patriots added depth behind franchise quarterback Drake Maye, as Tommy DeVito will likely compete with Josh Dobbs; coach Mike Vrabel said this shouldn't reflect Dobbs's performance.
  • DeVito noted his work with former Giants coach Brian Daboll and experience starting as a rookie will ease his transition in New England, impressing Patriots front office including ex-Giants executive Ryan Cowden.
