Story summary

Dianna Russini returned to sports media on November 9, 2026, with a new weekly NFL show called "The Russini Report" hosted on BetUS TV’s website and X account. The show, which debuted on November 9, focuses on NFL news and game matchups, featuring guest interviews and analysis. Russini had previously resigned from The Athletic in April following a scandal involving photos of her with New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel, which led to an investigation and her departure from the platform.

Critics argue that her association with an offshore gambling company and her silence on the Vrabel scandal undermines her credibility.
