It wouldn’t really be accurate to say that the New York Giants had a quarterback controversy this week. Instead, it’s probably better to describe it as a “Quarterback Question” following their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles — and it was a brief one at that.
The Giants’ quarterback question was prompted when Tommy DeVito, the defacto starter, was benched at halftime in the Giants’ Christmas day game against the Eagles in favor of Tyrod Taylor. The Giants very nearly pulled off the stunning upset with Taylor, and the question was promptly answered when Brian Daboll named Taylor their starter on Wednesday.
