Syracuse’s passing game continues development led by Tommy DeVito

Last Saturday was an unmitigated disaster for the Syracuse Orange football team, but one might be able to find a glimmer of hope in the passing game. Though quarterback Tommy DeVito struggled a bit early, and definitely appeared shaky at times, he did wind up completing 71% of his passes for 330 yards and three touchdowns — despite Maryland being fully aware that SU was going to throw from the second quarter on.

That doesn’t mean DeVito or the passing game lacks room to grow, however. The Daily Orange’s Andrew Graham discussed as much this week when talking to the redshirt sophomore quarterback and receiver Nykeim Johnson.
