Overview

• Ramzee Robinson filed suit in federal court on June 15, accusing the Chiefs of racial discrimination, wrongful termination and retaliation after nine years with the team.
• The lawsuit alleges Black business staff were paid roughly $125,000 compared with an NFL average of $171,932 for similar roles and that the team denied his request for a compensation review.
• Robinson claims he was fired on Feb. 15 over an alleged incident without being shown the security video the Chiefs cited as justification.
• He also accuses the Chiefs of tortious interference after they blocked a Houston Texans request to interview him for another position.
• Chiefs spokesman Brad Gee says the team does not tolerate discrimination of any kind and looks forward to the facts emerging in the ongoing lawsuit.
