US Supreme Court Denies NFL’s Appeal in Brian Flores’ Racial Discrimination Case
The U.S. Supreme Court declined to intervene in Brian Flores’ discrimination lawsuit against the NFL, allowing the case to advance to trial. The league had sought to compel arbitration, but lower courts ruled in favor of the plaintiffs. Flores, a Black former Dolphins coach, accused the NFL of systemic racism in its hiring practices and is joined by coaches Steve Wilks and Ray Horton. Flores was fired after a 24-25 record and later became the Vikings’ defensive coordinator. Plaintiffs’ attorneys expressed satisfaction, stating the NFL cannot arbitrate discrimination claims against itself, emphasizing their readiness for court proceedings.
