Viking ranked No. 2 in league for workplace conditions by anonymous NFLPA report cards

INDIANAPOLIS — The annual report cards have been released by the NFLPA, and the Vikings have once again received high marks from their players. After finishing No. 1 last year in the inaugural rankings, the Vikings finished No. 2 this year behind only the Miami Dolphins.

The new practice was established by the NFLPA last year with a goal of giving a snapshot of working conditions across the league. The survey is conducted anonymously with players chiming in about their respective teams. The results are then compared across all 32 teams to figure out a ranking.

A total of 1,706 players across the league participated in the exercise this year, with everything from the team facilities to the treatment of families as a part of the grading systems.

According to the NFLPA, the Vikings are among the teams that separated themselves from the rest of the league, impressing in pretty much all categories across the board.  Notably, head coach Kevin O’Connell was given an A+ grade in the report cards.

Here’s a look where the Vikings ranked:

Treatment of Families: A (first)

Food/Cafeteria: B+ (seventh)

Nutritionist/Dietician: A (first)

Locker Room: A (first)

Training Room: A- (second)

Training Staff: B (ninth)

Weight Room: A (eighth)

Strength Coaches: A (first)

Team Travel: A- (second)

Head Coach: A+ (second)

Ownership: A+ (second)
