Flores, fired by the Dolphins last month, said team owner Stephen Ross encouraged him to lose games on purpose and was disappointed when Flores wouldn’t.

The Giants, Broncos and Dolphins all denied that racial discrimination was their reason for not hiring Flores. In, the NFL claimed “diversity is core to everything we do,” and vowed to fight the suit, which the league said is “without merit.”
