Tommy DeVito, Giants undrafted rookie QB, to start vs. Cowboys

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Giants will start undrafted rookie quarterback Tommy DeVito on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.

DeVito will start over recently signed veteran Matt Barkley after Daniel Jones tore the ACL in his right knee Sunday in Las Vegas. Backup Tyrod Taylor is already on injured reserve with a rib cage injury.

It will be the first time in the common draft era that the Giants start an undrafted rookie in a non-strike game. DeVito will be the 10th undrafted rookie to start an NFL game since 2010, and second this season.
