On Wednesday, Drew Lock seemed to still be digesting the news that the Giants were not going to him but instead turning to Tommy DeVito to start at quarterback this week, Christian Arnold of The New York Post reports.
The Giants had signed the veteran Lock in the offseason to be Daniel Jones’ backup, but when push came to shove on Monday, DeVito was the one that head coach Brian Daboll picked to face the Buccaneers, causing confusion among some observers.
That included Lock, who told The Post’s Steve Serby that he was “upset” after the Giants’ practice on Wednesday in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
“Six years into it, I’ve done a lot of press conferences,” Lock told The Post. “Feel like I’m ready for most questions. … Didn’t really know how to answer most of these today.”
“Just upset,” Lock added. “I’d say upset and confused [are] two pretty good words to put in there. You understand where they’re coming from, but at the same time, when you are the [QB2] you expect to just be the next guy up. It’s an interesting situation that I didn’t foresee happening, but one that I’m gonna handle and deal with as a professional, and be who I am as a person.”
