The Spin

Right narrative

This will not end well for anyone. Flores has been throwing extreme allegations at the NFL and Stephen Ross that will be nearly impossible to erase even if they're found innocent. So far, his claims have been unsubstantiated.

Left narrative

Flores is making serious claims of racist and unethical conduct that warrant further investigation. Tweets from his lawyers clearly suggest that the team tried to make him sign an NDA to silence him.
