Giants Devito Stuns Fans With An Announcement That He Is No longer Taking Part In.
Sunday’s 24-6 loss in New Orleans was something that seemed all too familiar for the New York Giants.
It was the same old story — a barrage of sacks allowed, an incompetent offense, the lack of a pass rush all led to a blowout loss.
The defeat ended any dream of a miracle playoff berth. It also slowed the Tommy DeVito train and reestablished talk of potentially taking a quarterback in the draft.
It took the air out of these final three games, including this week’s matchup on Christmas Day with the rival Philadelphia Eagles.
The Giants (5-9) now have a 0.1% chance of reaching the playoffs, according to ESPN Analytics. More notably at this point, they have a 58% chance of a top-five pick in the 2024 NFL draft.
They’re even still in the running for a top-two pick and will be heavy underdogs in each of their final three games against the Los Angeles Rams and Eagles, who they play twice.
The Giants will be playing the Eagles for little more than pride and draft positioning Monday afternoon with the entire nation watching the primetime game.
“We’re all pros. Get ready to play. That is our job,” coach Brian Daboll said. “Look forward to the opportunity to play [Monday].”

There is still plenty for DeVito to play for in the final three weeks.
This is a rivalry the Eagles have dominated for years. They’ve won 16 of the last 19 matchups. Philadelphia is an organization the Giants have been chasing for much of the past decade, especially this offseason after the 38-7 playoff loss in Philadelphia earlier this year.
“There’s a talent gap there that we need to close,” general manager Joe Schoen said about the entire NFC East, and specifically the Eagles, after last season.
So far, it doesn’t look promising. But these teams do meet twice in the final three weeks.
