Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito has become quite the NFL star since taking over the starting role in New York.

The 25-year-old has had a handful of viral moments already, including this past weekend when his family attended the game. But, one of the big storylines surrounding DeVito is that he still lives with his parents.

Comedian Tracy Morgan, a notable Giants fan, spoke on Inside the NFL and the crew asked his opinion on DeVito’s current living situation. Morgan, who at one point in his career lived with his parents, didn’t think this was necessarily a bad thing. But, he couldn’t help but make a few jokes about it.

“That’s a good thing, that’s healthy,” Morgan said as the crew bursted into laughter. “You want to get all the caregiving you can get from them. He needs it. Can’t just get coaching on the field.”

The Giants have won two of their three games with DeVito under center thus far. He’s thrown for 697 yards, with seven touchdowns and three interceptions.

If DeVito’s hot streak continues, he might be moving out of his parents’ house sooner rather than later.
