Veeery interesting. Wonder if Flores had filed his suit a few weeks earlier they'd have grabbed him for DC instead of promoting Teryl Austin from within. Completely unsurprised the Rooneys would buck the trend from the rest of ownership, but they also have a terrible rec of moving on from obviously incompetent coordinators, so unless Austin goes lights out and gets poached from them (unlikely, from what I've seen), Flores might be stuck there for a while.So much for Brian Flores being blacklisted from the NFL as the Steelers just hired him to be the Senior Defensive Assistant/Linebackers Coach. Makes sense considering Pittsburgh implemented the Rooney Rule and they probably agree with Flores.
