Giants' Dexter Lawrence dislocates elbow, Tommy DeVito expected to return soon
Why it matters: The Giants faced setbacks with key players on both offense and defense, raising concerns about their performance and potential for upcoming games.
What's new: Dexter Lawrence suffered a dislocated left elbow during the game against the Cowboys, while Tommy DeVito missed the Thanksgiving game due to a forearm injury.
- Lawrence leads the Giants with nine sacks, making his absence a significant blow to the defense.
- DeVito expects to be back soon and could potentially start against the New Orleans Saints, providing a boost to the offense.
Yes, but: Despite DeVito's potential return, the Giants have struggled with quarterback consistency in recent games, starting three different quarterbacks in their past three games.
What to watch: The extent of Lawrence's injury will be determined through an MRI, which will shed light on the timeline for his recovery and potential impact on future games.
What's next: The Giants will need to regroup and find ways to compensate for the absence of Lawrence on defense while hoping for DeVito's quick return to stabilize the quarterback position.
- The team must address the turnovers that plagued Drew Lock's performance against the Cowboys, as highlighted by Brian Daboll's comments.
The bottom line: The Giants face challenges on multiple fronts with key injuries and inconsistent quarterback play. Their ability to overcome these obstacles will be crucial in determining their success moving forward.
