The NFLPA's 2026 report cards have been leaked, revealing a detailed assessment of player experiences across 32 teams. This comes after the NFL's unsuccessful attempt to keep these report cards from becoming public. The report cards, based on responses from 1,759 players, cover a range of topics, including treatment of families, home game fields, food and dining areas, and various support staff. The categories for 2026 include new additions like position coaches and the three coordinators, along with the General Manager. However, the leaked report cards do not include the detailed comments that were previously listed with the grades. The NFLPA had won a grievance that prevented the publication of the results, but the arbitrator specified that the report cards and their criticisms must not be made public. The report cards provide a unique insight into the player experience, but the lack of detailed comments leaves some questions unanswered. This controversy invites discussion and invites readers to share their thoughts in the comments.
