A newly unsealed report concerning Brian Flores and the Las Vegas Raiders’ 2024 coaching search is under scrutiny after Flores’ lawyers raised concerns about its contents and possible connection to his discrimination lawsuit against the NFL.
Flores’ lawyers state that the report contains racial stereotypes. They also argue that it may represent retaliation related to Flores’ lawsuit.

The report was prepared for the Raiders’ 2024 coaching search, according to the available account. No further details were provided about who prepared it, what specific passages prompted the lawyers’ concerns, or when it was unsealed.
