Giants' Mara again dismisses Flores' allegations

NFL Giants President & CEO John Mara has again "strongly denied allegations brought on by a lawsuit from Brian Flores that accused his organization of a 'sham' interview during its head coach search and insisted the team would not be settling out of court." Mara ahead of the NFL owners' meetings in Florida this week said that the organization had "no contact" with Patriots coach Bill Belichick, whom Flores alleged in the lawsuit texted him he would not be getting the job before he was even interviewed. Flores claimed in the suit that the Giants had "made their decision to hire Brian Daboll, a white candidate, before he received his chance in front of the team's brass." Mara yesterday insisted that Flores' allegations are "false." The owner said that he "won't back down and is confident the Giants went through a thorough and fair process" (ESPN.com, 3/27).
