See where the Buffalo Bills ownership and facilities rank among other teams on NFLPA team report cards

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — The National Football League Players Association has released its second annual team report cards.

According to the NFLPA, the report cards are meant to "illuminate what the daily experience is for players and their families at each team," and it focuses on the following:

Objectives

• Highlight positive clubs – It is really important to highlight the teams that are doing things well and where players are happy. It makes a big difference when players go to work feeling supported by their club, and we want our members to know which clubs make players feel that way based on the responses from some who were at that club during this past year.
• Identify clubs that need improvement - For players who have been on one team and are looking to move elsewhere for whatever reason, there is currently no centralized resource to compare some players’ feelings and opinions about their working experiences from one team to another.
• Highlight best practices and standards - Players who have only played on one team for their entire career may accept their team’s standards as the norm and often think conditions are the same everywhere else. Making more information and opinions available can not only inform players about best practices, but also hopefully help raise the standards across all clubs

Desired Results

• Educate our membership – Our goal as a union is always to bring value to our members, and getting feedback from them is a classic union tool to get a better understanding of what membership feels about certain issues. We hope this can be a resource for all players.
• Information will lead to action – No problem can be fixed until it is identified and acknowledged as a problem. We hope that teams will take this feedback and improve the facilities and players’ experiences, where needed.

Teams were graded in the following categories:

• Treatment of Families
• Food/Cafeteria
• Nutritionist/Dietician
• Locker Room
• Training Room
• Training Staff
• Weight Room
• Strength Coaches
• Team Travel
• Head Coach
• Ownership

The NFLPA said the survey was administered from August 26 to November 16, 2023, by Artemis Strategy Group and 1,706 active NFL players completed the survey in full, which comes out to more than a 77% response rate.
