The NFL coaching carousel has been very active this month, but no move was more surprising than Brian Flores's dismissal from the Dolphins. Issues between Flores and starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa were reportedly a factor in the decision, and on Thursday, former NFL general manager Michael Lombardi revealed some pretty shocking details about that relationship before walking back his report on social media.
During Thursday's episode of his podcast The GM Shuffle, Lombardi addressed the issues that prospective Dolphins coaches may have being honest about Tagovailoa. Lombardi said that Flores outright told the young QB that the Dolphins should drafted Mac Jones in 2021.
