Undrafted rookie QB Tommy DeVito leads Giants to third win in a row

In the New Jersey tale of Tommy DeVito, the New York Giants' undrafted underdog turned in his best act yet on Monday evening.

Playing in front of his parents and a home crowd he has galvanized, DeVito scrambled and threw his way into Giants lore as the quarterback led New York to a thrilling 24-22 comeback win over the Green Bay Packers.

"Just go win the football game," DeVito said of his mindset ahead of the game-winning drive. "Go execute a drive that we practice every day before practice, which is a two-minute drive. We do it every day, different situations. … So just go out and go win a game."

Though he's a rookie, DeVito's moxie and poise with the game on the line was clear and unsurprising to his head coach.

"Yeah, you don't have to worry about that," Giants head coach Brian Daboll said about talking to DeVito regarding keeping his calmness. "He keeps his composure. There's really nothing. Here's a couple of plays we like. Go out there and rip that son of a b----. Pretty simple."

DeVito has propelled the Giants to their first three-game winning streak since 2022, having tied the NFL record for most wins (three) by a rookie undrafted QB in the NFL's Common Draft Era after his second game-winning drive, a first for a UDFA rookie in the Common Draft Era, per NFL Research.

Having piloted New York to a surprising 21-13 advantage over a previously red-hot Packers squad, DeVito watched as Jordan Love hooked up with Malik Heath for a touchdown to make it 22-21 as only 1:33 remained on the clock. But the clock's not yet run out on DeVito's fable.

The 25-year-old proud product of Livingston, New Jersey, led the Giants on a 57-yard drive -- keyed by a 32-yard heave to Wan’Dale Robinson -- to set up Randy Bullock's 37-yard
