NEED TO KNOW
- A new video shows Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel's 2021 boat outing, first reported a day earlier
- The sports journalist and the New England Patriots coach allegedly rented a private boat for the day
- Russini was approximately seven months pregnant at the time of the excursion
A new video is offering a glimpse of Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel’s summertime excursion on a Tennessee lake in 2021.
In a video published by TMZ on Thursday, May 7, the sports journalist, now 43, and the New England Patriots coach, now 50, are seen walking on a dock on a sunny June afternoon in Putnam County, Tenn.
Both dressed casually for a day on the lake, Vrabel wore a black short-sleeved shirt and bright-blue shorts while a heavily pregnant Russini sported a dark t-shirt and olive-colored shorts.
On the day in June 2021, the then-Tennessee Titans head coach and Russini, who was then working at ESPN, allegedly rented a private boat together and were the only people on board during the rental period, a source with direct knowledge reportedly told TMZ on Wednesday. The rental period lasted between two and three hours.

The AFC Championship-winning coach and the former The Athletic journalist signed company waivers before getting on the boat, according to documents obtained by TMZ Sports. The outlet published images of the documents, with what appears to be their signatures visible.
The two allegedly “appeared cautious” about having photos taken, according to the outlet.
Two months after the video was shot, on Aug. 7, 2021, Russini gave birth to her first child, a son named Michael Andrew, whom she shares with husband Kevin Goldschmidt. The couple later welcomed son Joesph "Joey" Kevin in October 2022.
The couple were married in September 2020, about nine months before the video was taken.
The new video surfaces one day after Vrabel’s quarterback Drake Maye said that the head coach’s ongoing photo scandal was not a distraction.
"I mean, he's our head coach,” Maye, 23, told the AP. “I think he's done a great job of talking to us and talking us through it. I'm just looking forward to getting back to work and getting ready."

Maye continued, "I think that'll take care of itself. I know he's got the right mindset, and I know he's a great human being. I think he's . . . like I said, I love playing for him."
