Locker Room
D-
TIED FOR 28th
73% of players feel like they have enough personal space.

The lockers are old and in desperate need of a renovation.
Many players complain that they want to have a chair at their locker instead of a stool so they can lean back when sitting.

Didn't they completely redo the locker room area when they renovated Arrowhead?

This seems like bullshit.

It's not just arbitrary grades shit out onto the interwebs, though. There's legitimate feedback from the players for why each grade is what it is. Granted, most of it is complaining about outdated facilities which is sort of to be expected.

They did but of course that is nearly 20 years ago at this point.

This doesn't even make sense though, they could tell the "well liked staff"

We have won 2 SB in 4 years and been to 3, I find no possible way any of this is no Bueno.

They upgraded them again in 2020.

In 2019, the Chiefs announced multiple renovations for the 2020 season, which included replaced seats in the lower level, a new video display on the East end, and locker room upgrades.[36]

Well, of course there isn't enough room to be comfortable. Hell, there's barely enough room for all of the Lombardi trophies and Super Bowl schwag- let alone add 50-something world champions!

I mean, I'm not suggesting anything is going to happen. But someone higher up might make it a point to mention it to him to lighten up a bit based on that feedback is all.

Take a look at some of the college facilities and how much nicer they are than NFL locker rooms.

Of course the NFL’s locker rooms are not anywhere near as nice

Well yea Oregons is insanely nice, like it's stupid.

None of this really matters as the Chiefs will be asking for a new stadium before long.

The training staff that fumbled around and ****ed up their QB’s brain multiple times this season was given an A+?

One of our core jobs as a union is to improve the overall working conditions for our players, which includes the daily experience of players at the team facilities away from the lights and cameras. 1,300 of our players provided information to share with one another about their current club, to not only help them make important career decisions, but also help raise standards across the league. Our goals were to highlight positive clubs, identify areas that could use improvement, and highlight best practices and standards. To learn more about the background of this initiative, read a note from President JC Tretter here: https://nflpa.com/posts/nfl-team-rep...by-the-players The unformatted Chiefs' report card, if you don't want to click the link https://nflpa.com/kansas-city-chiefs-report-card: Spoiler! Overview The Kansas City Chiefs are ranked 29th overall in our team guide. In general, the results show that the facility feels outdated and players would like to see upgrades across the board. Only 56% of respondents believe that club owner Clark Hunt is willing to invest the money to upgrade the facility, ranking him 27th in this category. Players’ responses showed that treatment of players also falls well below other clubs across the NFL. For example, the Chiefs are one of 6 teams that still make certain players have roommates, and less than 50% of players feel they have enough room to be comfortable on flights. Feedback on the training room was also notable; player respondents called for a more welcoming environment, and several players had negative opinions about head trainer Rick Burkholder, feeling that he does not treat players fairly and consistently, or with personal care. Breakdown of Key Categories Treatment of Families: B Tied for 12th Support of Players' Families: Ranked 16th They offer a family room They are one of 11 teams that do not offer daycare Post-Game Gathering Area: Ranked 13th Food Service / Nutrition D+ TIED FOR 18th Quality of food: Ranked 15th All three meals provided Only 50% of players say there is enough room in the cafeteria. Weight Room C+ TIED FOR 22nd The weight room is seen as slightly below average compared to the other teams. Players would like it to be updated with more and newer equipment. 97% feel they have enough strength coaches Strength Coaches A- TIED FOR 17th When asked about “Strength Coaches adding to their success” they ranked 17th in the NFL. 17th sounds average but that is because most teams rated their strength coaches positively. The Chiefs players gave overall high marks to the strength staff which is why the overall grade is still high. 94% of players believe they receive an individual plan (17th) Training Room D+ TIED FOR 24th Staffing 77% feel they have enough ATCs (4th worst in the league) 61% feel they have enough PTs (4th worst in the league) Steam Room/Sauna There is a steam room (91% feel it is big enough) There is a sauna (91% feel it is big enough) Tubs 78% of players feel they have enough hot tub space 81% of players feel they have enough cold tub space Training Staff D- 32nd Rated the lowest among training staffs across the NFL. Responses to the survey called for things like “a more welcoming environment.” With the lowest rating and concerning qualitative responses, we learned that players’ key concerns are with head trainer Rick Burkholder (not the rest of the training staff, which is generally well liked). Player respondents expressed beliefs/opinions that: They feel discouraged from reporting their injuries They do not feel they get the level of personal care that they should They fear retribution for speaking up for better care Locker Room D- TIED FOR 28th 73% of players feel like they have enough personal space. The lockers are old and in desperate need of a renovation. Many players complain that they want to have a chair at their locker instead of a stool so they can lean back when sitting. Team Travel F TIED FOR 28th 59% of players feel like they have enough room to spread out One of 6 teams that makes young players have roommates Very few first-class seats Last edited by Quesadilla Joe; 03-01-2023 at 02:16 PM..
