Strange, it's normally UPS that treats packages like footballs, not FedEx.
At least visually, I've observed the opposite.

I heard the truck pull-up and by the time I got to the door I saw the FedEx driver throw my package about eight feet to the steps. Fortunately, in this case, it wasn't fragile (meds that are over-nighted in refrigeration container: super padded with insulation).

I've had the UPS and USPS (i.e, the post office) people often ring the bell or knock on the door when they leave a package (face-to-face gone since COVID).

I had experienced FEDEX routing my overnight package (Florida to NY) via Philidelphia (Pennsylvania). Odd, because there are a lot of flights FLA<->NY OK - it would speed things up by making better air connections? No so! It sat there for twelve hours and wasn't delivered until the next day. Ice long since melted (summer), med's ruined - had to be resent (this time, UPS !). Someone, somewhere, ate $thousands for FedEx incompetency.
