Tommy DeVito benched for Tyrod Taylor in Giants' Christmas game vs. Eagles

Tommy DeVito's run as the New York Giants' starting quarterback is done.

For now, at least.

The Giants replaced DeVito with backup Tyrod Taylor in the third quarter of Monday's Christmas game against the Philadelphia Eagles. The switch took place as the Giants took over possession deep in Philadelphia territory after an Eagles fumble on the opening kickoff of the second half.

Taylor handed off to Saquon Barkley three times on the drive before Barkley scored New York's first touchdown of the game to cut its deficit to 20-10.
