The National Football League (NFL) docked the Miami Dolphins draft picks and suspended team owner Stephen Ross for violating the league's anti-tampering policy on Tuesday but said the team did not intentionally lose games in the 2019 season.
The Dolphins must forfeit their 2023 first-round pick and third-round pick in 2024, the league said. Ross received a $1.5 million fine and will be prohibited from representing the club at any NFL event through Oct. 17.
Ross said he strongly disagrees with the findings and the punishment with regard to tampering but will accept the outcome. Flores, who is Black, was fired in January after back-to-back seasons with winning records and sued the NFL and its teams in February alleging discrimination against Black candidates for top-level coaching and management jobs in the NFL.He said he was offered $100,000 per loss in 2019 by Ross, in order to help improve the team's draft position.
