Brian Flores Sues NFL, Teams; Says Brian Daboll Was Hired by Giants Before Interview

Former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores is suing the NFL and all 32 teams, alleging racial discrimination in the coach hiring process.

In a lawsuit filed Tuesday, Flores alleges the Giants had settled on Brian Daboll as their head coach days before they were scheduled to interview him. He completed his in-person interview with the franchise last Thursday, and Daboll was named as the Giants' new coach a day later.

As part of the lawsuit, Flores included evidence that Bill Belichick mistakenly texted him days before his interview congratulating him on getting the job.
