## Resource

The Las Vegas Raiders are doubling down on real grass at Allegiant Stadium, despite the desert’s challenges and steep costs, with owner Mark Davis arguing it’s safer and more authentic. While other NFL owners prioritize cost-cutting, players like George Kittle support grass, citing player health and citing the World Cup as proof it’s maintainable. The NFL is listening, with a working group including the NFLPA focused on field improvements, signaling that player feedback is driving change—even as the grass-vs-turf debate continues to simmer.
