Wiki: NFL, College, And More

While he was working at the NFL, Dean also pursued his dreams of becoming a stand-up comedian. Further, he also served as the replay official for two super bowl seasons and managed NFL for nearly six years.
However, he left the NFL in 2009 to start his own business which trained and evaluated replay personnel. He returned to the league in 2012, and one year later, he got promoted as the Vice-President of the Officiating Department.
During his tenure as the Vice-President, Dean made some significant changes to the game and was well-liked for a guy with no football background. However, his perfect social image got ripped once he was caught in a scandal.
Party Scandal
Dean Blandino got involved in controversy back in 2015 when he was at the height of his career. Dean was spotted partying with Dallas Cowboys' officials. A video showing Dean exiting the club's party bus and entering a night club with the Cowboys' officiants was leaked online.
After the video was leaked on the internet, people including rival teams' players and owners started accusing Dean of practicing favoritism. However, it came to an end when he claimed the meeting to be official and said he didn't stay in the night club for more than ten minutes.

It won't be right to say that Dean has never been suspected of being a closeted gay. His hard-partying lifestyle had many asking if he was compensating for his gay sexuality.
However, he proved the paparazzi wrong when he came out as a married man. Dean is married to a lovely wife and even has two children under the age of five.
