Chicago Bears Rep. vs The NFL
The Chicago Bears B.D.L is prepared to launch an investigation and lawsuit vs the NFL on the grounds of the NFL’s failure to abide to federal law Employment Discrimination under Title VII or Section 1981.
We understand that Rooney rule is a company policy, but the lack of compliance by the NFL further supports discriminatory practices found throughout the league. Such as the Brian Flores case and many others.
The Chicago Bears currently meet all of the qualifications of the JC-2a Rooney Rule that was modified to include draft compensation towards teams that develop minority candidates towards their promotion elsewhere in the league as Head coach or executive.
Since Ian Cunningham was promoted from assistant to General manager for the Atlanta Falcons, the NFL owes draft compensation towards the Chicago Bears.
But the NFL and Rodger Goodell have refused to abide by their diversity policies. On what grounds is the precedent being set on?
The Chicago Bears are a family owned organization that have truly lived up to the NFL’s diversity policies willingly.
The Chicago Bears is one of the original football teams that has been around since the genesis of the NFL.
The Chicago Bears are not involved in any illegal activities that may forfeit draft picks such as tampering or Epstein allegations. Though we find it odd that teams involved in those cases still maintain all of their draft capital.
Thus, our team of lawyers want to understand on what ground did the NFL break its own diversity policies? Why are the Chicago Bears losing their draft compensation?
Falcons executives and team President Matt Ryan has stated multiple times that Ian Cunningham is in charge of football decisions and operations.
We demand answers @NFL @NFLPA @DOJCivil
The NFL should be a representation of people from all backgrounds uniting towards a common cause.
It saddens me that we need policies such as the Rooney rule to maintain equality and equity.
But it’s even more devastating when the NFL doesn’t follow through on their own policies and principles that they market to the world.
The public deserves full transparency on the matter, but we are willing to hear what the NFL has to say privately.
At the end of the day, actions speak louder than words.
Give Chicago Bears their draft compensation that they have earned. Their staff and organization is a model representation of what diversity looks like within the NFL.
