Jaguars, Jets Interview Brian Flores for Head Coach

Brian Flores, currently the Minnesota Vikings' defensive coordinator, has been actively interviewing for head coaching positions with the Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Jets. The Jaguars conducted their eighth interview of the cycle with Flores, who previously led the Miami Dolphins to a 24-25 record over three seasons. Meanwhile, the Jets have also interviewed Flores as part of their search for a new head coach, making him the 13th candidate to meet with them. Flores has expressed interest in returning to a head coaching role but emphasized the importance of finding the right situation for himself and his family. His past includes a class-action lawsuit against the NFL for alleged discriminatory hiring practices, adding complexity to his candidacy. Both teams are in search of new leadership, with the Jaguars looking for their third head coach in five seasons and the Jets interviewing multiple candidates for both head coach and general manager roles.
