When your nickname is ‘Tommy Cutlets” it would seem to only make sense that your agent would look like he just walked off the set of “The Sopranos.”

The ESPN cameras caught Giants QB Tommy DeVito on the field before his “Monday Night Football” game against the Packers flanked by his agent Sean Stellato.

DeVito has not been shy about playing up his Italian-American heritage and Stellato, 45, wasn’t either.

The agent donned a black pinstripe suit with a black hat and a gold bracelet on his wrist.

Naturally, the clip went viral as football fans ate the image up as it circulated X and Instagram.

After the Giants’ scored a third-quarter touchdown — keyed by a 26-yard scamper by DeVito, Stellato planted a kiss on the cheek of DeVito’s father, Tom, prompting ESPN’s Joe Buck to declare the agent “may break the internet.”

Stellato is a longtime agent who is also of Italian-American descent, and will be inducted into the National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame this week in Chicago.

According to his SES Sports website, Stellato’s NFL client list includes former Washington and Cowboys running back Alfred Morris, former Giants running back Shaun Draughn, ex-Patriots punter Ryan Allen, former Eagles defensive end Bryan Braman, former Seahawks cornerback Tye Smith and ex-Panthers and 49ers defensive end Ryan Delaire.

“Sean is always in my corner and will do whatever it takes to help me with my career on and off the field,” DeVito told The Salem News. “He is the Italian Stallion of sports agents.”

DeVito has taken the New York sports scene by storm as he led the Giants to back-to-back wins going into Monday night’s matchup with the Packers.

The New Jersey native had 697 passing yards and seven touchdown passes in five appearances this season.

DeVito’s success on the field mixed with his relatability off of it has made him a darling to Giants fans and football fans alike.

The 25-year-old and his family have embraced the spotlight that’s been thrust on them.

DeVito’s family has been seen on broadcasts multiple times and before Monday’s game held a tailgate outside MetLife Stadium serving up — what else — chicken cutlets and Italian heroes to fans.

“We’re giving the whole Italian show,” DeVito’s father told The Post. “It’s gonna be craziness. We’re gonna give ’em the Italian theater they’ve been asking for. Three hundred chicken cutlets, got Italian sandwiches, baked ziti, sausage and peppers, rice balls — everything Italian. I’m gonna have my guys setting up sandwiches with Italian headbands on. We got an Italian flag with Tommy’s picture on it. They’ve been begging for it. We’re gonna give it to ’em.”
