In a memo to all franchises in the NFL Saturday morning, commissioner Roger Goodell sent to all 32 teams stating “we must acknowledge” that the results of the NFL’s efforts to promote diversity toward head coaches “have been unacceptable.” The move was in response to the lawsuit against the Miami Dolphins and the NFL, by former Miami head coach Brian Flores. The memo, titled “Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion,” is included in full at the bottom of this article.
Responding to Goodell’s memo, Flores’ attorneys, Doug Wigdor and John Elefterakis, also issued a statement Saturday.
