New Giants starter Tommy DeVito trying to avoid 'fun and games'

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- All the hoopla that surrounded quarterback Tommy DeVito last year made him an instant sensation. Now, the second time around with him as the New York Giants' starting quarterback, he's trying to keep it relatively mild.

The local product and undrafted free agent out of Illinois will start against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.

"Last year was a good story and all, how it happened," DeVito said. "All the fun and games outside, it was fun. That was last year. I'm sticking to football now.
