Make Page Six a Preferred Source Controversial sports reporter Dianna Russini is back — but not everyone’s convinced that she’s better than ever.
Russini re-activated her X account on Tuesday, just months after her bombshell relationship with New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel became the source of what she has described as a “nightmare” scandal.
However, the journalist’s post on X had nothing to do with her past few months. Instead, she seemingly made an attempt to prove that she’s still very much embedded in the NFL, by posting industry gossip about the Minnesota Vikings, suggesting that the team is looking for a new quarterback.
In a follow-up post, she also promoted her new show on BET Us, The Russini Report, which premieres on Wednesday.
While some users appeared ready to open Russini back with open arms, others were quick to take aim at the disgraced reporter, who quit her job at the New York Times’ Athletic soon after it was revealed her relationship with Vrabel was under investigation.
“Back like nothing happened huh? Its over, nobody watching the show,” one X user wrote.
Another typed, “You still have sources?!”
“Just casually dropping back in,” someone else penned.
