Acrisure Stadium uses a natural-grass surface, first installed as Kentucky Bluegrass in June 2001 at half the standard NFL height. The synthetic-enhanced Desso GrassMaster system was added in 2003, but a poll of 1,565 NFL players after the 2008 season still rated it the worst of the 18 natural fields in the league. Despite the criticism, players and coaches repeatedly lobbied to keep the grass, and the natural surface has remained.
