Overview
Mission
To solidify and preserve the legacy of retired NFL players by creating and managing new revenue streams, while developing meaningful health, welfare and educational programs.
What it reported doing in 2025
Providing Benefits: The PFRPA Dental Plan and the PFRPA Vision Plan are two insurance programs offered to retired NFL players, who effectively retired by July 2013, and their spouses. The PFRPA Dental Plan is a valuable benefit that provides a $3,000 calendar year maximum for members and their spouses to take care of their oral health. We also offer retired players and their spouses the PFRPA Vision Plan, which provides coverage that includes one pair of frames, with prescription lenses, and an annual supply of contacts.
