DeVito Era Over? Eagles Win With Tommy Cutlets Benched Have Tommy DeVito's glory days come to an end? The undrafted quarterback who's been starting for Big Blue was sent to the bench on Monday night's Christmas Day game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Tuddies For Tommy: North Jersey's DeVito Notches First NFL Career Win With NY Giants Who needs home cooking?  North Jersey's Tommy DeVito continues to defy the odds, notching his first career win Sunday, Nov. 19 on the road against the Washington Commanders as the Giants earned their third win 31 to 19. And possibly pushed themselves out of contention for the first overall pick in April's NFL Draft.  It wasn't always pretty, but the Cedar Grove native and Don Bosco grad threw 246 yards for three touchdowns, despite being battered behind a beleaguered offensive line that allowed nine sacks.  The 25-year-old QB will return home following his big win — a home he now famously…
