EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Giants strongly denied any wrongdoing in their interview process with former Miami Dolphins coach Brian Flores and called the allegations against them disturbing and simply false in a second statement released Thursday evening.
The Giants laid out the timeline of events as a key contention that Flores' interview was not a "sham," which he contended in his lawsuit against the team and league earlier this week. They were also adamant that New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick was providing his opinion and was not told of a decision that the text messages behind him and Flores contend were made before new Giants coach Brian Daboll had his in-person interview with the club.
