Commanders president Jason Wright was not happy on Thursday when discussing the NFL’s hiring practices among minority candidates for head coaching opportunities.
Wright’s frustration stems from the latest controversy surrounding former Dolphins head coach Brian Flores, who is suing the the league, three NFL teams and unidentified individuals, claiming racism in the league’s hiring practices.
Wright, who is the NFL’s first and only Black president, spoke to a crowd of people at the Economic Club of Washington D.C., on Thursday, declaring that the league must change the way it handles minority hires for head coaching positions.
