Who are the announcers and referees for Giants vs. Buccaneers today?

The New York Giants have hit rock bottom with a 2-8 record, fresh off an overtime loss to the Carolina Panthers in Munich, Germany, followed by a much-needed bye week. Despite forcing overtime with a late comeback, the Giants once again let a winnable game slip through their fingers, continuing a season-long pattern of errors and missed opportunities.

That defeat highlighted just how far the team has fallen and prompted a significant shift in direction. The Giants officially parted ways with Daniel Jones, first benching the quarterback and then releasing him outright. Once believed to be the cornerstone of the franchise after signing a four-year, $160 million deal in 2023, Jones' tenure ended in disappointment. His departure signals the start of a rebuilding effort, with the team now eyeing a new quarterback in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Stepping into the void is undrafted fan-favorite Tommy DeVito, who will take over as the starting quarterback. DeVito earned his moment in the spotlight last season with a viral three-game winning streak, capturing the hearts of fans with his blue-collar New Jersey roots and confident demeanor. Now, DeVito has the chance to prove he can be more than a stopgap solution and inject life into an offense that has struggled mightily throughout the season.

As the Giants prepare to host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at MetLife Stadium in Week 12, all eyes will be on DeVito. The team is hoping he can provide a spark to salvage some positivity from an otherwise dismal year. With key changes already in motion, this game could set the tone for the Giants’ plans moving forward, both for the remainder of 2024 and beyond.
