Dianna Russini is all set to return to sportscasting this NFL season, and she reportedly plans to address the elephant in the room first. The NFL insider’s name has been all over the news in the last few months, thanks to her alleged affair with New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel.
The 43-year-old NFL reporter resigned from The Athletic in April 2026 after photos surfaced showing her with Vrabel at a luxury resort in Sedona, Arizona. Their images sparked questions about the nature of their relationship, particularly because both were married.
