Calculation of current salary cap space:
Salary data shown in the table is from Spotrac.com, which currently estimates the team’s salary cap space at $2.4 million.
That figure is based on a total team salary cap of $182.5 million, $5.9 million in rollover and adjustments from 2020 and $11.5 million in dead cap from previously-released players.
But Spotrac’s figure does not include the salary cap impacts of the following recently-signed free agent (or drafted rookie) contracts. The amounts shown in parentheses are the estimated cap space decreases for each contract. These could change when actual figures are available.
- None at this time
With these figures (if any) included, the team’s cap space should be $2.4 million.
Remember: salary cap figures are estimates based on publicly available contract information, which can be misunderstood, rounded or inaccurately reported. Only the NFL, NFLPA and the involved teams and players know the precise figures. Therefore, any salary cap calculation must be taken with a grain of salt.
