Former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said during an interview with Bryant Gumbel for HBO's Real Sports that the AFC East team offered him a non-disparagement agreement for millions of dollars after he was fired.
"Signing that separation agreement would have really silenced me," Flores said when explaining why he declined it.
