As Brian Flores speaks, the deeper he draws Bill Belichick into his class-action lawsuit against the NFL

Five years ago this month, William Stephen Belichick was entered as a possible material witness in the Aaron Hernandez double-murder trial. Ultimately, those proceedings came and went without the New England Patriots coach being called for testimony.

But if you’re listening to Brian Flores right now, things could go far differently in the class-action lawsuit filed by the former Miami Dolphins coach.

Because the more Flores speaks, the more he appears to point to Belichick as being a significant witness — and possibly even a participant — in some of the systemic problems plaguing the NFL’s hiring process.
