Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers Makes His Feelings Clear on the Dianna Russini-Mike Vrabel Controversy

When Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers appeared on The Pat McAfee Show this week, he was in no mood to joke around. He even spoke about the Mike Vrabel – Dianna Russini controversy that shook the league just a few months ago.

“There’s a major scandal, and it’s just like nobody can f*g talk about it? What are we even doing here?” said Rodgers.

When the hosts commented that “personal lives are personal lives,” referring to how Rodgers likes to keep his own personal life under wraps, Rodgers didn’t hedge.

“I understand, but if it’s affecting certain things, if there’s leaks going on, if there’s tampering going on, if that person is also an MVP voter and a coach of the year voter. Remember when I won MVP in 2021? … Like, how are we allowing these people to have an impact?”

The NFL Community was caught by surprise when Page 6 photographed The Athletic’s Dianna Russini with New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel at a resort earlier this offseason. The Athletic launched an internal investigation into its senior NFL insider, and Russini left her job in the face of intense scrutiny.

Russini, who held a post with ESPN for eight years, was also one of the voters who chose the league’s MVP players and Coach of the Year.
