New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito had the opportunity to sign with the New England Patriots after the New York Giants initially waived him in late August.
Instead, he turned it down.
The undrafted rookie did not make final roster cuts, and New England wanted to sign him to their practice squad. The coaching staff was able to see DeVito up close, having worked with him at the East-West Shrine Bowl. So it was no surprise they’d be interested in seeing him in their system.
Ultimately, DeVito signed back with the Giants.
