The NFLPA report cards , which offered a glimpse at how players graded their teams on facilities, ownership, coaching staff, workplace conditions, and more, have received a controversial update, which might be a good thing for the Pittsburgh Steelers front office.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the NFL "informed all 32 teams today in a memo that it prevailed in its grievance vs. the NFLPA and its 'team report cards.'"
He also added that an "arbitrator determined that the NFLPA's conduct violated the CBA and ordered it to stop making public any future report cards."
An update from the NFLPA indicated that the report card program was not going away but wouldn't be made public.
The Steelers were torn to shreds in the NFLPA 2025 team report card, grading out as a bottom-five organization overall, including awful rankings in categories such as ownership, weight room, treatment of families, nutritionist, and strength coaches.
Many have been quick to criticize the move on social media, arguing that the NFL, including the Art Rooney-led Steelers, deemed it easier to eliminate public reception of the report cards than to actually address the complaints of their players.
