The Arizona Cardinals have earned poor marks on player report cards released in recent years by the NFL players union, but grades won’t be made public this year.
Publication, which traditionally took place after the Super Bowl, was blocked on Friday by an arbitrator who found the NFL Players Association had violated its collective bargaining agreement with the league and team owners.
In last year’s survey of players, the Cardinals ranked last out of 32 clubs, which was a drop from 27th the year before.
The Cardinals have since taken action to address poor marks for the condition of the team’s locker and weight rooms.
In October, the team announced plans for a new headquarters and training facility in north Phoenix, scheduled to open in 2028.
