Super Bowl 2023: Poor turf was issue for players: 'It’s the worst field I ever played on'

GLENDALE, Ariz. — Super Bowl LVII wasn't played in bad weather. It was 77 and clear at kickoff.

Yet, at times it looked like the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs were playing in a rainstorm. Throughout the game, players were slipping on the turf.

"I’m not going to lie, it’s the worst field I ever played on," Eagles defensive end Haason Reddick said.

There were similar complaints from a College Football Playoff game played between TCU and Michigan last month at State Farm Stadium.
