EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The Giants today announced four additions to their player personnel department.
The newest members of general manager Joe Schoen's staff, who officially join the organization today, are Chris Rossetti (director of pro scouting), Dennis Hickey (assistant director of player personnel), Mike Derice (national scout) and Scott Hamel (area scout – Southwest).
Rossetti spent the previous seven seasons with the Miami Dolphins, the first two (2015-16) working with Schoen.
In 2021, Rossetti was the Dolphins' assistant director of pro scouting. In that role, he evaluated players throughout the NFL as it pertained to free agency, preseason, team advances, trades, practice squads and the waiver wire. He also monitored daily personnel moves throughout the NFL and other professional leagues and was responsible for scouting future opponents.
Rossetti joined the Dolphins as a pro personnel assistant in 2015 and spent five seasons (2016-20) as a pro scout for the team.
Prior to Miami, Rossetti spent three seasons (2012-14) in the CFL with the Toronto Argonauts' player personnel department. He initially began as a scouting assistant in 2012 where he was a member of the 100th Grey Cup championship team. He was then promoted to player personnel assistant the following year before serving as the director of player personnel in 2014 at the age of 24.
Rossetti is a Mississauga, Ontario native. He was a four-year letterman and two-year starter as a quarterback at the University of Guelph (Ontario), graduating in 2012 with an honors degree in history. He and his wife, Alex, have one daughter, Hailey.
