Patriots coach Mike Vrabel comments on family amid Dianna Russini scandal

New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel addressed his family during a press conference, saying he appreciates his wife Jen and his sons and emphasizing his focus on coaching. The remarks came after photos and video of Vrabel with sports reporter Dianna Russini sparked a public controversy, leading to Russini’s resignation from The Athletic.

Vrabel noted that he had taken time away from parts of the NFL draft and sought counseling to deal with the off‑field issues, but reaffirmed that his priority remains the team’s preparation for the upcoming season.
