Loretta Lynch, who was the first Black female attorney general in US history, will defend the NFL in the racial discrimination lawsuit filed by Brian Flores earlier this month.
{{featured_button_text}} -- The NFL hired former US Attorney General Loretta Lynch as part of its defense counsel against the class-action lawsuit filed by former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores, a spokesperson for the league told CNN on Wednesday.
The Giants organization earlier this month issued a statement standing by its process and decision to hire Daboll. As of Wednesday, there are only two Black head coaches in the NFL -- Pittsburgh Steelers' Mike Tomlin and Houston Texans' Lovie Smith -- in a league where nearly 70% of the players are Black.
The Denver Broncos strongly challenged Flores' lawsuit, saying,"The allegations from Brian Flores directed toward the Denver Broncos in today's court filing are blatantly false."
