The biggest start of Monday night’s NFL action was not, in fact, New York Giants QB Tommy DeVito, who has come out of nowhere as “Tommy Cutlets” to win games.
No, that would be DeVito’s agent, Sean Stellato, who was on the sidelines and dressed impeccably, grabbing headlines and attention (from the ManningCast!) everywhere before cheering with DeVito’s family from the MetLife Stadium stands. What a night for everyone all around.
So … who is this guy? We’ll get into that with some fun facts about the man who has gone mega-viral in one night.
Time to get to know Stellato:
1
DeVito calls him the "Italian Stallion of sports agents"
Seriously! From the Salem News:
Currently, Stellato represents up-and-coming New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito, who has burst onto the scene this fall following an injury to starter Daniel Jones and helped defeat the Patriots two weeks ago at the Meadowlands.
“Sean is always in my corner and will do whatever it takes to help me with my career on and off the field,” said DeVito. “He is the Italian Stallion of sports agents.”

His list of clients has some notable names
From that same article:
Stellato serves as the President of his own company, SES Sports, and has represented a number of well accomplished NFL players including former Patriots tackle Joe Vellano and punter Ryan Allen, former Washington Commanders/Dallas Cowboys running back Alfred Morris, and former San Francisco 49ers back Shaun Draughn, to name a few.
Former Jaguars running back Jonas Gray did a testimonial for Stellano.
