The NFL Players Association’s annual team-by-team report cards were released and several teams are apparently not happy with their owners.
The NFLPA survey allows players to vote anonymously to grade their employers on multiple categories, including ownership. Several owners received bad grades, and one team was a bit of a surprise.
