The Giants on Thursday night denied Brian Flores’ claims that their interview with him for their head coaching position was a "sham" and that they had already decided to hire Brian Daboll before meeting with the former Dolphins coach.

Flores is suing the NFL and the Giants for what he alleges was racial discrimination in the hiring process. Flores also is suing the Broncos and Dolphins in the class action suit.
