It’s that time of the year again.
The NFLPA’s 2026 report cards were made public Thursday in a report from ESPN. This year’s survey was based on responses from 1,759 players across the league.
This year, the Dallas Cowboys received a few A-minuses in several categories. The lowest grade the team received was D for its training room.
Brian Schottenheimer earned a high grade after his first year as Cowboys head coach. He received an A-minus. Meanwhile, offensive coordinator Klayton Adams was also seen in a positive light as he earned an A.

Former defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, who oversaw a historically bad Cowboys defense, was given a C grade. Special teams coordinator Nick Sorensen was given a B-plus.
The Cowboys were bumped down in categories like training room (D), locker room (B-plus) and team travel (C) compared to last year’s survey. Last year, Dallas was given a C for its training room, an A for its locker room and a B-minus for team travel.
There wasn’t a lot of change in terms of grading for Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones. He earned Bs in both the general manager and ownership category. The team’s ownership was given a B last year.
