Mike Vrabel’s Silence Before NFL Draft Sparks Curiosity—The Real Reason Revealed
The 2026 NFL Draft is a week and a half away, but New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel won’t be discussing it with reporters. While that might seem odd − or perhaps expected given the controversy he currently finds himself embroiled in − Vrabel is not ducking a previously scheduled obligation.
An offseason team schedule obtained by USA TODAY Sports and dated March 11 details that executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf was always scheduled to conduct the team’s pre-draft press conference on April 13. That is a change from 2025, when Vrabel, not Wolf, held forth the week before the draft. However it’s not an organizational pivot in the aftermath of recently published photos of Vrabel at an Arizona resort last month with Dianna Russini, The Athletic’s NFL insider.
