The class action lawsuit was filed on Tuesday, on behalf of Flores and a group of others, alleging that the 'the National Football League has a painful history of racism that continues through the present day.'
In the lawsuit, it's alleged that the Dolphin's reason for Flores' firing was due to"poor collaboration."
The lawsuit alleged that Ross then pressured Flores to recruit a prominent quarterback in violation of the league's tampering rules. When Flores refused, he was cast as the"angry Black man" who is difficult to work with and was derided until he was fired, the suit said. According to the suit, Flores was"forced to sit through an extensive interview process, knowing that the that the Giants had already selected a white man for the position."
