Kansas City Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt.
Kansas City Chiefs chairman and CEO Clark Hunt somewhat surprisingly received an F-, the league’s worst ownership grade, in the NFL Players Association’s 2024 report cards released on Wednesday.
Hunt spoke with reporters at the NFL Scouting Combine shortly after the report cards went public and acknowledged the club’s practice facility could use improvements sooner rather than later.
“There was a question asked at the press conference about the practice facility and it is certainly a high priority for us,” Hunt said, per Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk. “I have not had a chance to see the report.”
Among other things, the report card says that Kansas City “players went on to win the Super Bowl (in February 2023) and when they arrived back at their facility for the 2023-24 season, they realized the team never followed through with the promised renovation” for the locker room. Players also criticized Hunt for a lack of “significant reinvestment back into the facilities” and ranked him “as the least willing to invest in team facilities among all NFL owners/ownership group in the opinions of the respondents.”
According to a story produced by Dave Skretta of The Associated Press, the Chiefs are planning an $800M renovation to Arrowhead Stadium that could begin after the venue hosts games for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Such upgrades could take “about four years to complete” but won’t do anything to address issues impacting players during upcoming workouts.
“The practice facility is something that we’re going to continue to think about,” Hunt added during his comments. “It’s coming up on 20 years, we certainly in a lot of ways have outgrown it. And we recognize that we have a need to expand it and modernize it.”
Andy Reid was the highest-rated head coach in the NFL per the report cards. He reportedly could soon put pen to paper on a contract extension that may make him the NFL’s highest-paid head coach after he guided the club to three Super Bowl titles from February 2020 through this winter.
One wonders if Reid will address the survey and/or what was said about Hunt before the combine wraps up.
