New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel has replaced quarterback Tommy DeVito's famous nickname 'Tommy Cutlets' with 'Two Chains', the New York Post reports. Vrabel began using the new moniker after noticing DeVito always wears two gold chains. "'Two Chains' is doing a nice job," Vrabel said Tuesday. DeVito became a fan favourite during his time with the Giants, where his mother's chicken cutlets inspired the original nickname. The 28-year-old said the change happened naturally inside the Patriots' building. He spent last season as New England's third-string quarterback and is expected to back up Drake Maye this year.
