Steelers' assistant Brian Flores to accept job as Vikings DC

Pittsburgh (WJAC) — According to NFL Insider Adam Schefter, Pittsburgh Steelers' senior defensive assistant coach Brian Flores is reportedly accepting the job to be the next defensive coordinator for the Minnesota Vikings.

Flores was hired by the Steelers last February after being fired from his head coaching position with the Miami Dolphins.

Prior to being hired in Pittsburgh, Flores filed a discrimination lawsuit against the NFL and all of its franchises, claiming that the league and its teams do not follow its own process for interviewing minority head coaches.

That lawsuit is still ongoing.

The financial details of Flores' new coaching gig have not yet been announced.
