Mike McDaniel: 'Zero red flags' in taking Miami Dolphins' head-coaching job amid Brian Flores' lawsuit

MIAMI -- The drama surrounding the Miami Dolphins organization didn't deter Mike McDaniel.

The team's new head coach, speaking to the media about his dream job for the first time since he was hired Feb. 6, praised Dolphins owner Stephen Ross for his commitment to winning despite allegations from former head coach Brian Flores that Ross offered him $100,000 for every game the team lost in 2019.

"I can honestly say there were absolutely no red flags -- and the reason why is because I was stepping into an organization with a boss who, I don't think people give it it's proper due," McDaniel said Thursday.
