Probably file an addendum to the lawsuit to include the Saints if passed over

Oh boy, this is going to get interesting. Brian Flores is suing the NFL and all 32 teams as the main representative in a class-action lawsuit, alleging racism in hiring practices. The Giants, Dolphins, and Broncos are all specifically named as defendants. The lawsuit includes private texts from Bill Belichick where he congratulated Flores for getting the New York Giants job before Flores had even interviewed... because Belichick got Brian Flores and Brian Daboll confused, and apparently the Giants interviewed Flores knowing they were already hiring Daboll. Flores also alleges that Stephen Ross, owner of the Miami Dolphins, offered to pay him $100,000 for every loss during the 2019 season to help the team get a better draft spot. And he alleges that the head brass of the Denver Broncos showed up hungover to his 2019 interview, which was a sham just to satisfy the Rooney Rule before the Broncos hired Vic Fangio

I mean, if they already had their guy and still interviewed him to fill their Rooney Rule requirements, knowing that he had no shot, then it sounds like he has a valid case.

No interest in hiring him at this point, though, because I don’t want any part of this shite show

I don't want a coach who complains about racism.

Flores is outrageously overrated, and now seems like trouble outside the locker room as well.

Goodell will call Gayle and offer a deal.

"Hire Flores and I'll finally stop fricking with you."

Gayle: "You said you'd stop when Sean left!"

I think Flores just lost every potential job in the NFL. He is done coaching in the NFL.

What a complete dumass. The team is racist but they hired you with no prior coaching experience, failed to get yiur team in the playoffs 3 years and get fired so everyone is racist now? What a POS, and he can kiss his career goodbye

I guess he decided he'd just rather not coach again. Dude is burning some bridges this afternoon.

 Flores also claims that Dolphins owner Stephen Ross offered to pay him $100,000 for every loss during the 2019 season to help the team get a better draft spot, becoming upset when Flores instead kept leading the team to wins. This story is far from over as Flores remains trapped in the coaching cycle with few vacancies remainin
