Brian Flores is suing the NFL and three of its teams, saying racist hiring practices by the league have left it racially segregated and managed like a plantation. The NFL’s response: “We will defend against these claims, which are without merit.'
Publish date:The former Miami coach is suing the league, the three franchises and unidentified individuals, alleging discrimination and racism in hiring practices.
As for Denver in 2019, then-general manager John Elway, president and CEO Joe Ellis and others who were part of the interview process allegedly showed up an hour late, per the copy of the complaint. “They looked completely disheveled, and it was obvious that they had been drinking heavily the night before,” the complaint read. “It was clear from the substance of the interview that Mr. Flores was interviewed only because of the Rooney Rule, and that the Broncos never had any intention to consider him as a legitimate candidate for the job. Shortly thereafter, Vic Fangio, a white man, was hired to be the Head Coach of the Broncos.
“Pages of detailed notes, analysis and evaluations from our interview demonstrate the depth of our conversation and sincere interest in Mr. Flores as a head coaching candidate. Our process was thorough and fair to determine the most qualified candidate for our head coaching position. "The Broncos will vigorously defend the integrity and values of our organization—and its employees—from such baseless and disparaging claims.”
