The Chiefs might run the NFL on the field but behind the scenes? It’s looking kinda sketchy. The NFL Players Association just dropped its 2025 report card, and let’s just say the vibes in Kansas City’s locker room are… not immaculate. While Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce are out here cooking defenses, it seems like the organization itself is fumbling the bag.

The players straight-up roasted owner Clark Hunt in the ratings. His willingness to invest in team facilities? A mid-tier 6.61 out of 10, ranking 26th out of 32 owners. His effort to build a positive team culture? Ranked 20th. And his commitment to keeping the squad competitive? Sitting at 17th. Basically, the players are side-eyeing him hard, and it looks like they’re done pretending everything’s chill.

The one saving grace, you may ask? Andy Reid is still with the franchise. A whopping 93% of players think he knows how to manage their time efficiently (ranked 17th), and they respect how he listens to locker room feedback (ranked 13th). So, while the front office might be flopping, Big Red is holding it down.

But let’s talk about the real tragedy—the travel sitch. The team flights are meh (ranking 19th), but the home game hotel? Absolute horror story. We’re talking dirty floors, leftover trash, and sketchy vibes all around. Some guys won’t even take their shoes off because it’s that nasty. And guess what? It’s officially the worst-rated hotel in the entire NFL. At this point, the Chiefs might want to invest in some Clorox wipes and a little dignity. But before that, they have got another thing to take care of.

Chiefs’ locker room? More like a storage closet

For a team that stays winning on the field, you’d think their locker room would be top-tier. Spoiler alert: It’s not. Chiefs players just hit it with a D- rating, which is basically a polite way of saying, ‘This ain’t it.’ Only 63% of players feel like their lockers are big enough (ranking 28th), and just 70% think the overall space is decent (ranking 26th). Translation? It’s cramped, outdated, and far from the kind of setup you’d expect for a team that just went to the Super Bowl.

The training room isn’t much better. The Chiefs rank 29th out of 32 teams, with players calling out the lack of full-time trainers (28th) and physical therapists (27th). The only semi-decent part? The hot and cold tubs which rank 16th and 15th. But let’s be real—having a working hot tub isn’t exactly a flex. If players feel like they aren’t getting the medical support they need, that’s a major L for the organization.

On the bright side, the Chiefs at least try to take care of their players’ families. They added a daycare at the stadium on game days and have a family room during home games. The post-game family area got a 7.04 out of 10 (ranked 22nd), and they throw family events a few times a year (ranked 18th). Cool and all, but let’s be honest—no amount of family-friendly perks makes up for a locker room that feels like a packed subway car. If the Chiefs want to keep their stars happy, they might wanna start with some renovations.
