Mike Vrabel seeks counseling

The coach will be absent for Day 3 of the draft in Pittsburgh, a decision he described as necessary to be the 'best version' of himself for his team and family.

The move follows intense media scrutiny over photos showing Vrabel at an Arizona resort with longtime NFL insider Dianna Russini.

While Russini has since resigned from her job, Vrabel admitted to having 'difficult conversations' internally about the situation.

The Patriots organization has expressed support for Vrabel's decision to prioritize his mental health and personal life during this period.
