"These photos are misleading and lack essential context. These were public interactions in front of many people. Dianna is a premier journalist covering the NFL and we're proud to have her at the Athletic."
"The photos don't represent the group of six people who were hanging out during the day. The interaction shown is completely innocent and any suggestion otherwise is laughable."
The Athletic is conducting a reinvestigation into NFL reporter Dianna Russini's relationship with New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel. This follows the publication of photos by the New York Post showing the two together at a resort, which raised questions about their interactions. Initially, The Athletic defended Russini, stating the photos lacked context. However, concerns have emerged regarding her coverage of Vrabel, leading to an ongoing investigation during which she will not report.
