New York Giants Respond to Brian Flores’ Lawsuit, Bill Belichick’s Text Messages

Brian Flores’ lawsuit mentioned plenty of teams, one of them being the New York Giants.

Now the teams and people involved in his claims have begun to respond. As of now every party involved has denied his accusations.

Add the New York Giants to the list.

The Giants released a statement responding to the claims, based on a Bill Belichick text message, that they already selected their head coach prior to interviewing Flores.

Via Giants.com:

“The allegation that the Giants’ decision had been made prior to Friday evening, January 28, is false. And to base that allegation on a text exchange with Bill Belichick in which he ultimately states that he “thinks” Brian Daboll would get the job is irresponsible. The text exchange occurred the day before Coach Daboll’s in-person interview even took place. Giants’ ownership would never hire a head coach based only on a 20-minute zoom interview, which is all that Mr. Daboll had at that point.

In addition, Mr. Belichick does not speak for and has no affiliation with the Giants. Mr. Belichick’s text exchange provides no insight into what actually transpired during our head coaching search.”

The big question is how could Belichick know who the Giants were hiring prior to Flores being interviewed?

It appears as if he did in fact have some inside info on who had the job.

Maybe Belichick just wanted to blow the whole thing up?
