The NFL Players Association’s annual player report cards were recently released by ESPN’s Kalyn Kahler after the NFL won a grievance that barred the NFLPA from publicizing them on its own.
It was a leak everyone knew was imminent, despite the grievance, and now everyone still will get to see what each team’s players felt about certain aspects of their organization. Per ESPN, “this year’s report cards are based on responses from 1,759 players. All players who were on a 2025 roster at the time of the survey were eligible to participate, and it was conducted from Nov. 2 to Dec. 11.”
Here are the Rams’ grades across 17 categories:
The coaching staff earning such high marks isn’t surprising. Sean McVay remains one of the most respected coaches in the NFL, and he has built a staff that is consistently poached by other teams for top positions. The Rams also received As for their training staff, strength coaches and general manager Les Snead.
The more surprising grades came in areas tied to the Rams’ home environment. Players gave below-average marks to the home game field, food and dining area, and locker room, suggesting dissatisfaction with on-site facilities rather than on-field leadership.
Using a GPA-style scale, the Rams averaged out to a B overall. That places them well above the league average in core football operations — head coach, coordinators, position and strength coaches, training staff and general manager — while landing closer to the middle of the pack in logistical areas like nutrition, training facilities, travel and ownership.
The Rams graded below league norms in treatment of families, home game field, food/dining area and locker room.
Overall, the results closely mirror the 2024 survey, though that report did not contextualize the Rams against the rest of the NFL.
Notably, the biggest changes were positive: the training staff and ownership both improved by a full letter grade from 2024 to 2025, signaling increased confidence in player support and organizational investment. Treatment of families also saw a meaningful uptick from last year’s sharply negative feedback.
