NFL cult hero Tommy DeVito has hard launched his new relationship after sharing a series of pictures from his vacation in the Caribbean.
The quarterback – who spent last year with the New England Patriots after being waived by the New York Giants – took to Instagram on Wednesday to share the snaps.
In the photos of his trip to the Turks and Caicos Islands, DeVito was seen cozying up to an Instagram model, known as Michayla on her profile.
In one picture, the pair stood side-by-side in an elevator, while brunette beauty Michayla rested her head upon his shoulder.
If the pictures weren’t enough confirmation, she also left a comment on the post which seemingly verified the romance. ‘My [chicken emoji] [heart emoji],’ she wrote.
DeVito replied to her comments with some ‘heart emojis’ of his own.

Elsewhere in the comment section, DeVito’s former teammate Jaxson Dart wrote: ‘Launcheddd ayyy [eyes emoji]’.
The Patriots QB replied and made reference to Dart’s recent relationship reveal, writing: ‘Saw someone else do it first – felt left out.’
Michayla had seemingly dropped a major hint over their relationship two weeks prior to DeVito’s post, after similarly sharing vacation snaps with the quarterback.
In a post on her page, the couple posed close together while out at a dinner.
DeVito spent two years with the New York Giants before being released last August. He was subsequently snapped up by the Patriots but did not play a game last year.
In another apparent hint at their relationship, back in October, Michayla shared pictures of her attending a game between the Patriots and Falcons.
Eagle-eyed fans noted that she wore a clear stadium bag on the day, which had DeVito’s jersey number 16 on the front of it.
‘Sundays are for [football emoji],’ she captioned her post.

Back in August, the New Jersey native failed to make the final roster at his boyhood team, the Giants, ending his dream after two seasons and 12 games.
After bursting onto the scene in 2023 with six starts and a 3-3 record, DeVito didn’t play as much in 2024 and his chances of representing the Giants took a hit when the team added Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston and Jaxson Dart to the QB room during the offseason.
It was initially believed DeVito would find himself a spot on the practice roster for 2025, but head coach Brian Daboll opted to cut him completely.
While many expected it to be the beginning of the end for his NFL career, he was claimed off waivers by the Patriots – giving himself another shot at the big-time.
