The woman who claims to have leaked the video of Dolphins Assistant Coach Chris Foerster says the fact that he was allowed to resign shows how "white privilege" exists in the NFL.
Kijuana Nig'e told Las Vegas TV station KTNV that she and Foerster dated for about two months.
Nig'e said they broke up last week after he sent her the video showing him snorting a white powder.
"He resigned, right? So if he was a black coach, do you think he would have been fired or would he have been given the option to resign?" said Nig'e.
Nig'e said she decided to release the damning video because of the NFL's "inequalities" when it comes to the treatment of players who have chosen to kneel instead of stand during the national anthem.
"It's kind of like a white privilege, if you want to be honest about it," she said. "It's a white privilege when you compare the two. You get one person get in trouble over an anthem when you have a coach who probably can't even sing along because he's so high."
Nig'e, who said she hasn't spoken to Foerster since the video was released, said her intent was never to get him fired.
"I want him to get help," she said.
