WATCH: Multiple coaches joining Brian Flores lawsuit against NFL

The suit will soon be even bigger than the league expected.
Flores’ class-action lawsuit accuses multiple NFL teams, including the Denver Broncos and New York Giants, of discriminatory hiring practices and not abiding by the written intentions of the Rooney Rule.
