DeVito is listed as questionable for the Thanksgiving Day game, but a source told ESPN on Wednesday that DeVito was considered unlikely to play.
He did not travel with the team to Dallas on Wednesday because he was undergoing additional evaluation, the Giants said. The team, however, said it expected him to travel to Dallas later Wednesday.
DeVito took several big hits in Sunday’s 30-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was making his first start of the season after the Giants released former starter Daniel Jones late last week.
The Giants turn to Lock after passing on him after Jones was benched for DeVito. Lock spent the first 10 weeks as a backup, with DeVito as the emergency third quarterback.
Lock has a short week and no real practices to prepare for the showdown against their NFC East rivals. He will also play behind an offensive line without his starting tackles. Andrew Thomas (foot) is on injured reserve and Jermaine Eluemunor (quadriceps) was ruled out Wednesday.
