Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross responded to a lawsuit from former Miami head coach Brian Flores, who is suing the Dolphins, New York Giants, and Denver Broncos, claiming he experienced racism during the team’s hiring processes.

Flores, who was fired after the 2021–2022 season by the Dolphins after three seasons, sued the teams earlier this week. In particular, he accused Ross of incentivizing him to lose games during the 2019–2022 season to get better draft picks, offering to pay him $100,000 per loss. Ross, in his statement, denied Flores’ allegations.
