Report: Stephen Ross wanted Brian Flores to tamper with Tom Brady

Brian Flores, former head coach of the Miami Dolphins made news on Tuesday when he filed a class-action lawsuit against multiple NFL teams claiming they were racist.

In these claims, Flores alleged that, in 2019, owner Stephen Ross requested that Brian Flores break league rules and meet with a quarterback that was currently under contract with another team which would’ve been tampering.

Joe Schad of the Miami Beach Post has reported that the quarterback in question was former New England Patriots signal-caller Tom Brady.

With Flores and Brady spending years together in New England where there would likely be a solid relationship between the two, and Ross and Brady both being Michigan alumni, there are enough connections to make this report feasible.

Brady became a free agent in March, signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and spent two seasons there, winning one Super Bowl and going to the playoffs in both years.
