Former Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson said he was paid $750,000 in bonuses for tanking games during his tenure with the franchise.
Jackson made the statement Thursday during an appearance on ESPN's Keyshawn, JWill and Max. The dollar amount was new information amid the fallout from Brian Flores' lawsuit against the NFL.
Flores alleged in a lawsuit that Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross offered him $100,000 per loss to tank for draft position during the 2019 season. According to the suit, Flores declined the offer, which led to tension between himself and management.
