The New York Giants started their last active quarterback on Sunday.

Third-string quarterback Tim Boyle emerged from the locker room to start the second half of Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens. He replaced Tommy DeVito, who suffered a concussion in the first half against Baltimore and was ruled out at halftime.

DeVito appeared to suffer the head injury late in the second quarter on a third-and-10 sack of Ravens linebacker Odafe Oweh. DeVito remained in the game for the next Giants play that resulted in a touchdown run by Devin Singletary, but he did not play again.

Boyle knelt out the clock on New York’s final play of the first half and then stayed on offense to start the third quarter. DeVito was ruled out due to a concussion.

Drew Lock is the No. 1 quarterback on New York’s depth chart after the Giants released longtime starter Daniel Jones midway through the season. He did not start on Sunday after being ruled out due to a heel injury.

DeVito made his third start of the season and completed 10 of 13 passes without a touchdown or turnover before leaving the game. Boyle, a sixth-year veteran backup, made two previous relief appearances for the Giants this season.

DeVito’s injury adds to the misery of a lost season in New York. The Giants entered Sunday’s game with a 2-11 record, tied for worst in the NFL. Their long-term answer at quarterback is up in the air after they released Jones, a former first-round pick the Giants selected in the first round of the 2019 draft.
