‘The Russini Report’ live updates: Dianna Russini’s new show premieres on heels of Mike Vrabel scandal

It’s a controversial comeback.

Sports reporter Dianna Russini is back to work Wednesday, launching a new show, “The Russini Report” on BetUs Sportsbook, months after a bombshell scandal surrounding her relationship with New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel rocked the NFL.

Russini quit her job at the New York Times’ Athletic in March as the outlet launched an investigation into her and Vrabel when Page Six published photos showing the pair cozying up at a resort in Arizona.

They are both married to other people and have denied allegations of an affair. 

On Tuesday, Russini returned to social media after deactivating her accounts in the wake of the media firestorm, to promote “The Russini Report” and break news of quarterback Kirk Cousins’ shocking trade from the Las Vegas Raiders to the Minnesota Vikings.

The journalist is being brutally mocked for her bold return to the spotlight, and described the scandal as a “nightmare” in a new interview this week.

“The Russini Report” premieres at 12 p.m. ET and will air every Wednesday on BetUs.

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.

The reporter proved that she’s still got it when she posted on X about a potential Kirk Cousins trade between the Minnesota Vikings and Las Vegas Raiders.

Shortly after she posted the insider info, the trade was confirmed.

In a follow-up post, she also promoted her new show on BET Us, The Russini Report, which premieres on Wednesday.
