Tommy DeVito's return to NJ Pizzeria after reported $20,000 dispute mocked by fans: "Cashing in good karma after taking the L"

Tommy DeVito tried to get his feel-good story back on track with a visit to Coniglio's pizzeria. He dropped in there unannounced and did not charge any fee after it was reported that his initial visit to the restaurant was canceled because his demands had doubled from an initial $10,000 to $20,000.

He looked like he had a good time as he drank sodas and ate pizzas at the establishment. But for those who were initially supposed to be there to get autographs, this unscheduled visit might not dampened the disappointment of his previous cancelation.

Fans were quick to jump on DeVito's back, saying that he was simply trying to get his public image back, especially after Patriots' recent loss to the New Orleans Saints.

Here is a collection of responses from fans on X:

Giants' losing season confirmed after loss to Saints

Tommy DeVito's intentions for visiting the pizzeria can be speculated by those online, but what no one can deny is that he has brought some holiday cheer back to New York fans. With the New York Jets already eliminated, the Giants are the only NFL team representing the city that is still in playoff contention.

However, that does not mean they will make it there. In all likelihood, their season will be done by the coming week. But for a season that was such a massive disappointment after last season's playoff run, the Giants quarterback has been a breath of fresh air.

Despite his best efforts, though, the New Orleans Saints gave them a reality check. The 24-6 loss saw them fail to score a single touchdown, and they were shut out in the second half. They are now 5-9 for the season meaning, even if they win all their remaining games, they will finish with a losing record.

This team still needs a lot of recalibrating on offense. Tommy DeVito was sacked seven times in the game and that is unsustainable, whoever the quarterback going forward is. So far, it is unclear if the current starter has staked a definitive claim. But his latest actions in visiting the pizzeria should at least establish himself as the fan favorite.
