Bucs Players Report 'Plumbing Issues and Persistent Bad Odors' in Locker Room to NFLPA

The NFL Players Association released its annual report cards for all 32 teams Wednesday, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers players handed out some low grades regarding the organization's facilities.

Tampa's overall grades ranked just 27th out of the 32 teams, and some of the lowest grades related to accommodations.

Bucs players gave the locker room a C grade, with 44 percent of them saying there are "ongoing plumbing issues." Some also mentioned "persistent bad odors."

The Buccaneers also gave the food/dining area a C-, the training room a C+, team travel a C- and treatment of families a C-.

Ownership received the lowest grade of all with a D+, which ranked 27th among the 32 franchises.

Malcolm Glazer purchased the Buccaneers in 1995 and owned them until his death in 2014. Since then, the Glazer family has collectively owned the team.

The Bucs have achieved a fair amount of on-field success in recent years, having won the NFC South four consecutive years and reached the playoffs five years in a row.

They also won the second Super Bowl title in franchise history in 2020 after signing future Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady.

For all of that success, the players are clearly left wanting more. It will be up to the Glazer family to take their grades to heart.
