EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Rookie quarterback Tommy DeVito may be the face of the New York Giants' sudden turnaround -- his pinched fingers celebration a symbol of the fun it has been -- but behind it all is the Giants' defense, which is making all this possible by forcing turnovers at a rapid rate.
The Giants have 12 takeaways the past three games, all wins. Eleven of those turnovers have come courtesy of the defense, including an interception by rookie cornerback Deonte Banks, and a forced fumble by edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux that was recovered by safety Xavier McKinney in Monday night's 24-22 win over the Green Bay Packers.
