The NFL has decided not to investigate Mike Vrabel following the controversy surrounding photos with Dianna Russini. A league spokesman confirmed the decision, sparking questions about the league's personal conduct policy.
According to the policy, players, coaches, and executives are required to avoid conduct detrimental to the integrity of and public confidence in the National Football League.
Vrabel and Russini, both married, had earlier issued statements downplaying the nature of the images.
The situation intensified after an ESPN report detailed how Russini, Vrabel, and executives at The Athletic reacted to the fallout.
Russini has since stepped down from her role at The Athletic, ending a high-profile career that included nearly a decade at ESPN.
