The NFL schedule release is two weeks out, and the Los Angeles Chargers<\/a> are practically sitting on a gold mine.<\/p>\n

Albert Breer appeared on The Dan Patrick Show<\/a> and raised what is probably an inevitable question at this point: Will the Chargers, who have built a reputation<\/a> as the most willing team in the league to take shots at everyone and everything in their annual schedule release video, go after Mike Vrabel<\/a> when the 2026 slate drops? They have the Patriots on their schedule this year, which means they don\u2019t even need to stretch for a reason. And the material, as Breer noted, is sitting right there.<\/p>\n

Over the past few weeks, Mike Vrabel has gone from one of the most respected coaches in the league to the central figure in one of the most salacious scandals in sports media after Page Six published photos<\/a> of him and Dianna Russini<\/a> holding hands, hugging, and sitting side by side in a hot tub \u2014 among other things \u2014 at an adults-only resort in Sedona, Arizona.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy guess would be that you\u2019ll probably see hints of it during the schedule release in a couple of weeks, with the way that teams all make fun of each other during the schedule release,\u201d Breer said<\/a>. \u201cYou see what the Chargers do every year, right? It\u2019s like nothing is out of bounds with the Chargers, so my guess would be they will. And if they don\u2019t, then it\u2019s going to be a story that they didn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

The bar the Chargers have set for themselves now works against them if they suddenly decide to play it safe. Restraint, at this point, would be its own headline.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt does feel like with these schedule release videos, it does feel like to me that almost nothing is out of bounds,\u201d the Sports Illustrated senior writer told Patrick.<\/p>\n

Breer even sketched out what the Chargers\u2019 reference might look like, wondering aloud whether someone holds up a phone with a playlist \u2014 pointing to a Spotify playlist that\u00a0Russini reportedly made<\/a> for Mike Vrabel during a losing streak in Tennessee<\/a> \u2014 and letting the audience connect the dots themselves.<\/p>\n

The question hanging over all of it is whether anyone tells the Chargers to pump the brakes. Breer raised that too, wondering aloud whether there\u2019s a point at which the league steps in or the Patriots organization makes clear that the bit isn\u2019t welcome. Given how this story has metastasized, it\u2019s hard to imagine the NFL eager to see the whole thing relitigated in a schedule-release video watched by millions.<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s never really stopped the Chargers before. And as Breer said, if they do hold back, that becomes the story too.<\/p>\n
