NOTES:
Tommy seemed to be the odds on favorite in 2024 to be the Giants starting QB but with the return of Daniel Jones and the addition of Drew Lock, things got complicated. On top of that a hand injury sustained during the season and a concussion, slowed Tommy’s progression.
Tommy is a fan favorite, who not only was undrafted, but is also a local who lives close to the Giants practice facility and is a proud Italian as well.
