Report: Witness Heard Dolphins' Stephen Ross Offer Brian Flores $100K per Loss

Former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores made waves when he alleged team owner Stephen Ross offered him $100,000 for each loss during the 2019 season to improve draft positioning, and there is reportedly a witness who can back up the allegations.

Flores' accusation against Ross came as part of a larger lawsuit he filed Tuesday against the NFL and its teams alleging racist hiring practices and discrimination.

NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe reported Wednesday a witness said he heard Ross make such an offer to Flores. Wolfe's report also notes "Flores' team says it has evidence including messages from general manager Chris Grier that corroborate the allegations against Ross.
