NFL reporter Dianna Russini has been in the news over the last few days after the New York Post’s Page Six shared pictures of her with Mike Vrabel, coach of the New England Patriots, at a resort in Arizona.

The pictures sparked rumours of an alleged affair between Mike Vrabel and a The Athletic reporter. Amid the speculation, NFL commentator Jason Whitlock shared a resurfaced clip of Dianna Russini‘s appearance on the “BMitch & Finlay” show.

In the clip, Dianna Russini asked Brian Mitchell and JP Finlay to introduce her as “MILF.”

Whitlock shared the clip in a post on X, writing:

“Diana Russini went on some radio show and said she wanted to be introduced as a M.I.L.F. rather than an NFL insider. That’s a confession of her true aspirations.”

Following the release of the pictures, Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini dismissed rumours of their relationship.

However, The Athletic have reportedly benched Dianna Russini as they conduct an investigation into her pictures with the New England Patriots coach.

“An initial review suggested the images provided lacked context, specifically the presence of a larger group of friends,” a source told NBC, “and information from the investigation raised additional concerns that are now being further reviewed.”

The clip has circulated again following the emergence of the photos involving Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel.

Ongoing review and response

Following the publication of the pictures, both Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini have denied the rumours of an alleged relationship.

The Athletic have reportedly benched Dianna Russini while an investigation continues into the images involving her and the New England Patriots coach, with the review still ongoing.
