The NFL won a grievance earlier this month that prevented the NFLPA from publishing the results of the 2026 report cards. However, the arbitrator did not block the NFLPA from creating the report cards or communicating the results to players, only requiring that union members be informed the results must not be made public.
Based on responses from 1,759 players surveyed between November 2 and December 11, 2025, the leaked report cards include letter grades for various categories including treatment of families, facilities, coaching staff, and coordinators, though they lack the detailed comments from previous versions.
