Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel professed his love for his wife and children Wednesday as he’s embroiled in an offseason photo scandal with former The Athletic NFL reporter Dianna Russini.

“I love Jen, I love the boys [Tyler and Carter], I love my personal friends,” Vrabel, who was wearing his wedding ring, said as he addressed reporters during Patriots OTAs.

Page Six first revealed on April 7 photos of Vrabel and Russini, who is married, holding hands and hugging at a luxury resort hotel in Arizona in March.

Photos later published by Page Six on April 23 show Vrabel and Russini kissing at Tribeca Tavern in New York on March 11, 2020, when he was head coach of the Titans.

On the same day those photos were released — hours before the first round of the NFL draft — Vrabel said he was going to seek counseling and that he’d be missing Day 3 of the draft.

Vrabel was then spotted at an airport in Utah, where he and his wife have a home and reportedly held a marriage summit.

Russini has since resigned from her job at The Athletic, which said it was investigating her interactions with Vrabel.

TMZ also published photos of a pregnant Russini on a boat trip with Vrabel in 2021, along with pictures of the pair at a casino in Biloxi, Miss. in 2024.
