An investigation is currently underway into NFL reporter Dianna Russini.
The probe follows reports of her personal connection to Titans coach Mike Vrabel, who is married.
The Athletic initiated the review to check when the contacts began.
They are also scrutinizing whether any rules for reporters were violated.
The New York Times reported news about Russini’s pay at The Athletic.
She answered in text messages, claiming the fuss has affected her personal life.
The Athletic has yet to complete checking the timeline yet.
