Mike Vrabel's alleged affair with Dianna Russini continues to generate attention, with the controversy showing no signs of fading. The latest development comes from journalist Crissy Froyd, who has made fresh claims after previously criticizing Russini when the affair allegations first emerged.
Following the disclosure of allegations involving Dianna Russini and New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel, Russini posted her resignation letter from The Athletic. Soon after, journalist Crissy Froyd became one of the first figures to attack her on social media.
Froyd re-entered the discussion in a Daily Mail column published after Mike Vrabel's latest New England Patriots press conference. She wrote that she had expected reporters to directly address the controversy surrounding Vrabel and Russini.
However, according to Froyd, no one raised the issue, leaving what she viewed as the most important question of the day unasked. Nearly six weeks after losing her job, Froyd claimed she 'fired for exposing the NFL's dirtiest sex secret.'
In her column, the former USA Today journalist further claimed that 'at least half a dozen female reporters' had privately told her they had been involved in relationships with NFL staff members.
'I've been told by at least half a dozen female reporters that they have had sex with NFL staff and, in one case, a prominent NFL head coach, while they were covering the team,' she wrote in the Daily Mail.
Froyd claims prior knowledge of Vrabel Russini affair 'It takes a high degree of trust to make such a confession, so I assume that many other similar stories go untold,' she added.
