Brian Flores, Steve Wilks, and Ray Horton allege that the NFL and several franchises used discriminatory hiring practices against Black coaches seeking head-coaching positions. The Supreme Court denied the NFL's request to compel arbitration, and the class-action litigation is proceeding toward court litigation.
