When the NFL Players Association released their annual Team Report Cards earlier this year, the Denver Broncos came in ranked 17th out of 32 clubs. Not terrible. But also not great.
The team's ownership group wants to be great across the board. It's no surprise that ownership received an "A" grade, but there's room for improvement elsewhere. The team's food and dining area received a "B+" grade, and the weight room and training room got a "B." The team's treatment of families received a "C-," and the locker room at the club's facility got an "F." Those grades should make big leaps after the team's new facility is complete.
“It’s not the only input that we look at, but it’s certainly important to listen to it," Broncos owner/CEO Greg Penner said of the NFLPA grades at the NFL's annual league meetings in March. "We learned some things last year. We made some changes. We added the family [room] inside the stadium so players’ families have a place before, during and after games if they want to be in there. There are still some things in the survey that we know we need to address.
"I think our worst grade was on the locker room. That will be addressed with the new training facility that we’re building. It’s always good to get feedback, and I’ll have some conversations with players as follow-up just to see if there’s something out of that we should also learn more about.”
It will be fascinating to see how the grades change after facility construction has completed.
"We know how they feel about the locker room at the training facility," team president Damani Leech said in March. "Hopefully they look across the practice field and see the steel going up and know that our intent and what we’re trying to solve for there."
