Vikings Ranked First, Commanders Last by NFL Players in New ‘Report Card’

All of the league’s franchises received letter grades from players in eight different categories.

The NFL Players Association released “report card” grades for all 32 NFL teams on Wednesday.

According to NFLPA president JC Tretter, around 1,300 players participated in grading their own teams with a 60-question survey that covered eight different categories: treatment of families, nutrition, weight room, strength staff, training room, training staff, locker rooms and travel. The 32 teams did not receive an official overall grade, just the individual grades from the categories.

There was only one team that received A minuses or better for every category: the Vikings. The Dolphins were close to achieving straight A’s, but were given a C plus for treatment of families.

On the other end of the spectrum, the Cardinals earned the most F’s among the league’s teams. Arizona ended with three F minuses which came in the nutrition, weight room and training room categories. The other two F’s were for treatment of families and locker rooms.

While they might not have received as many individual F votes, the Commanders still earned four, with three being F minuses for training room, locker room and travel. The franchise received a straight F for treatment of families, but did receive an A plus rating for its strength staff.

Here’s the full list of the report cards.
