Mike Vrabel’s Dianna Russini controversy refuses to go away. Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio has warned that Russini’s prolonged silence could be strategic, and a potential tell-all interview timed to drop on the eve of the Patriots’ September 9 opener against the Seahawks could create significant disruption. With New England already carrying the weight of a Super Bowl LX defeat to Seattle and Drake Maye’s continued development under the spotlight, any off-field distraction of this scale could prove costly before a ball is even kicked.
