EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- It was a steamy summer afternoon in August and the New York Giants fans attending training camp that day had already reached their boiling point with starting quarterback Daniel Jones. He had failed to connect on a few deep passes and two college-aged young men started yelling for his replacement.
"Tommy! Tommy DeVito!" they yelled. "You're the man. We want Tommy."
Usually the backup quarterback is the most popular man in town. In this case for the Giants, it's actually the third-stringer in second-year QB Tommy DeVito.
