There seems to be no end in sight right now for the Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini saga as they continue to be hit with new claims. Latest reports of the controversy suggest that there have been discussions of a possible NDA involving the former The Athletic reporter. Amid this, during his recent appearance on WEEI, legal expert, Mike McCann weighed in on the issue, explaining how the arrangement would legally function if it really happened.
Mike McCann explains why Mike Vrabel may end up paying Dianna Russini
From the very start of the Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel alleged affair controversy last month, in April 2026, the New England Patriots have reportedly maintained a firm internal stance, showing no signs of firing Mike as head coach. Dianna, on the other hand, had resigned from her job as an insider at The Athletic. Many are looking forward to seeing what move she makes next. For those unaware, after initial reports claimed that Dianna might finally be telling her side of the story in the scandal, rumours surfaced that she might be signing an NDA. Regarding the same, legal expert, Mike McCann said:
“That would be a non-disclosure agreement; it can be enforceable. She is an adult. If she signs some sort of agreement saying that I will not disclose other materials about you, whatever they did, that’s a contract.”
