I don't think the

php artisan generate:pivot players teams

exists in Laravel 5 as it used to in Laravel 4.

Hopefully however, this may help. This is how I create pivot tables in Laravel 5 with foreign key constraints:

php artisan make:migration create_player_team_table --table=player_team

The most important thing is to ensure your player_team table name is in alphabetical order with singular table names, i.e. do not use teams_players (not alphabetical), and do not use something like, player_teams (the plural teams will break it.)

The following gives an example of how the resulting

###_##_##_######_create_player_team_table.php

up() function might look:

    /**
    * Run the migrations.
    *
    * @return void
    */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('player_team', function(Blueprint $table)
        {
            $table->increments('id');
            $table->integer('player_id')->unsigned();
            $table->integer('team_id')->unsigned();

            $table->foreign('player_id')->references('id')->on('players')->onDelete('cascade');
            $table->foreign('team_id')->references('id')->on('teams')->onDelete('cascade');
        });
    }

Obviously, you can include or exclude the foreign key cascading deletes if you wish, I include them here only as a pointer.

I hope this helps.
