“We have a couple, but they don’t live near us, as in the same city, so they live far.”
The challenge of living in a city away from friends and family is making an emergency in a unique problem for many NFL families. For Diana, the solution was to list someone – or in this case several people – whom she knew would always answer the phone in emergency.
“I put Cleveland Brown’s security number as her emergency contact,” she said in the video, laughing.

“I know that in the case where they cannot reach me or my husband, they will pick up their phones. They will have access to him when I probably do not have access to him, as if he is at a meeting or something.”
Diana, who spoke to People Magazine after sharing the video, said that several other NFL wife and mothers have reached her about her “good idea.”
“I have some friends who have been former teammates here who are now on other teams that have mentioned like, ‘Oh my gosh, that’s such a good idea. I’ve never thought about it.’ Even some wives that I have never met before, but are in the league, they have come to me like, ‘oh my gosh, that’s a good idea.
