Key Points:
- Kalshi now gives Mike Vrabel a 64% chance to remain the Patriots' coach in Week 1, though this probability dropped after a TMZ report revealed Vrabel and NFL reporter Dianna Russini rented a boat together in June 2021 while she was pregnant.
- Vrabel has been involved in controversy since April 7, when the New York Post published photos of him and Russini, both married to others, holding hands and spending time together at a resort in Arizona.
- Patriots players, including quarterback Drake Maye, have been asked about the situation; Maye expressed confidence that Vrabel's off-field issues will not distract the team.
- Maye praised Vrabel's leadership and mindset, stating that the controversy will resolve itself and emphasizing his respect and admiration for the coach.
