Broncos player had multiple cars stolen from team hotel after he made questionable decision in parking lot

When the NFLPA report cards were released last week, there were definitely some very interesting complaints. For instance, the Washington Commanders were given the worst overall grade and part of that was because players complained about the fact that there were multiple sewage leaks in the team locker room. 

That seems like a valid complaint. 

Although that’s definitely not a good look for the Commanders, the award for craziest complaint probably goes to a claim that was made against the Denver Broncos.

At that point, the person was able to gain entry to both vehicles and drive off with them. 

So yes, the cars were stolen from a secured lot, but since the thief had the keys to the car, nothing looked suspicious when they drove off.

The NFLPA released its annual survey on Feb. 28 and in the survey, players were asked to grade the working conditions of their current team. The NFLPA had 1,706 players rate how their team handles 11 specific categories, including:…
