Drew Lock turns the ball over twice in first start with Giants

Former Broncos QB Drew Lock struggled against the Cowboys in his first start with the Giants.

Making his first start for the New York Giants on Thursday, quarterback Drew Lock had two turnovers in a 27-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day.

Lock set up the Giants’ opening score with a 29-yard run in the first quarter. After Lock was ruled short of the end zone, running back Tyrone Tracy punched in from one yard out to give New York a 7-3 lead.

Lock’s day went downhill after that.

The 28-year-old quarterback threw a pick-six in the second quarter:

Lock later rushed for an eight-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter.

Lock finished the game 21-of-32 passing for 178 yards with one interception, good for a 66.9 passer rating. He also rushed for 57 yards and a score.

Lock played for the Denver Broncos from 2019-2021. He went 8-13 as a starter in Denver before being traded to the Seattle Seahawks in 2022. Lock went 1-1 as a fill-in starter with the Seahawks last fall and then signed with the Giants this spring. He’s now 0-1 as a starter with New York.
