But Stellato is apparently working his way back into the good graces of NY Giants fans. And on Tuesday, Jan. 2, he won two of them back. The NFL agent was on Lafayette Avenue in Hawthorne when Robin Johnson spotted him on the way to the movies with her 11-year-old son, Christopher Reindeau.  The boy approached him and politely asked for a photo, she said.
