Hire Brian Flores as a coaching consultant.

He'd just be a consultant, Flores would barely have any skin in the game. It'd be a win for him since he wouldn't need to be a full time head coach amidst his lawsuit which will take up some of his time and focus.

And it allows Tepper to stick up his middle finger to the rest of the owners who gave Flores the runaround with the Rooney rule. He signed Eric Reid, I can see him hiring Flores. 

Guilt by association. He already took a hard stance that is worth respect. Why soil it by taking a job at a dysfunctional team circling the drain in 2022 just to be made fun of and belittle his stance? 

I'm with you on the second part, just do it next year after the enema I dream this team will get next offseason. I just don't see anything stopping this train wreck and I would like to see the guy succeed in forcing the NFL's owners hands as much as possible.

I think Flores is a good coach.  But I can't see him being employed by an NFL team in the near future (and maybe never).  

Here's a guy who's brought suit against all of the NFL clubs.  Who's to say if someone hired him, he won't bring another suit if his contract isn't renewed or he isn't hired as the HC.  

Plus the media always talking about the lawsuit.  And, obviously, his attention would be only partially on the team with the distraction of an active lawsuit.

Tepper should bring Flores in as co-President of the team shoulder-to-shoulder with the newly appointed Kristi Coleman, that would show them...

Pretty sure Roger has sent memos to all owners telling them Flores is off limits until the lawsuit plays out.

If Tepper actually had brass balls(which he doesn’t) he would hire the guy in some capacity.

Nah he showed his true colours when he belittled Lovie Smiths hiring

I doubt that would be legal.   A likely antitrust violation.

But all the team owners already know this.  So the end result is still the same.

You haven’t seen what Rhule’s revamped staff can do…. I say let’s see what it does…

Did you get a masters degree in sarcasm ?

Sadly him accepting this type of role would be insulting.  He is a head coach in this league.  I hate the way he has been treated.  Sucks

[bobcat91]

Flores will never work in the NFL again. Right or wrong, he has made his decision with the lawsuit and frankly, no one can ever trust him again. Everyone he works with from now on realizes he will stab them in the back if he gets a chance. No thanks.

Rhule does the coaching staff hiring, so...

Yeah I was going to say, with Matt Rhule’s ego, something like that is never going to happen.
