Brian Flores Turned Down Millions By Not Signing NDA After Dolphins Firing

Former Dolphins head coach Brian Flores and his lawyers say he turned down millions of dollars by not signing a non-disparagement agreement that he claims Dolphins owner Stephen Ross asked him to sign.

Flores, who was recently named to the the Steelers coaching staff as the senior defensive assistant and linebackers coach, will join HBO’s Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel on Tuesday, detailing why he did not sign the NDA.

After rejecting the NDA, the 40-year-old filed a lawsuit seeking class-action status against the NFL and three teams alleging discrimination in their hiring practices on Feb. 1. While Flores would have earned millions of dollars in signing the NDA, he felt that it would have silenced him.
