DeVito was sacked four times during the Giants' Week 12 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito is officially inactive for Thursday's Thanksgiving game against the Dallas Cowboys (4:25 p.m. ET, Fox) due to a forearm injury.

Drew Lock, who has appeared in two games this season, will start. Tim Boyle will serve as the backup, and DeVito is listed as the emergency third QB.

DeVito's injury came during Sunday's 30-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers when he was sacked four times.

Giants head coach Brian Daboll told reporters earlier this week that he was "hopeful" DeVito would be able to play, but that it was "not 100%." DeVito said later that day that the plan was for him to play against the Cowboys.

"I think if it was a regular week, Tuesday is usually when things settle in to your body. When you get hit on Sundays, usually Monday is a little sore; Tuesday's usually the worst day," DeVito said. "So having an extra, whatever it is, four or five days after that usually help."

DeVito did not fly to Dallas with the team on Wednesday and instead stayed behind to undergo further evaluation. After being listed as questionable to play, he traveled later in the day.

DeVito was set for his second start of the season after being named the Daniel Jones' replacement after the longtime Giants starter asked for his release. Jones is expected to sign with the Minnesota Vikings practice squad this week.

Lock has been getting reps with the starters this week in anticipation of making his first NFL start since Dec. 18, 2023.

"Just typical of the job. Always got to be ready, no matter what the week, no matter what the situation is, just playing like you're going to go in there and play." Lock said following Tuesday's walk-through. "My mindset didn't change this week, and we'll see how the rest of the week shakes out."

In two games this season Lock has thrown for 9 yards over 9 pass attempts.
