Very in depth piece by @kalynkahler.bsky.social, Kris Rhim and Jason Reid on how the Rooney Rule is failing black coaches in the NFL www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...
Brown, the Patriots assistant, told ESPN he learned hours before he interviewed for an offensive coordinator job that the team had already decided on another candidate, but the club needed to interview him to fulfill the league mandate.
Brown declined to name the team involved, saying it wouldn't change anything if he did.
Brown said a friend who worked with the candidate who ultimately got the job told him that the coach had already cleaned out his office before Brown's interview, a sign he knew he was getting the coordinator job. Brown said he called the club ahead of his interview to let them know what he'd heard.
"It was, of course, denied," he said.
