Salary cap space
All information shown is current as of 6:00 p.m. Sunday, August 16.
Current space: $4.2 million
This includes the estimated salary cap impacts of all known signings and releases. More information about our cap space calculation is available below the tables.
Please note: All NFL teams must remain below the salary cap between the beginning of the new league year in mid-March and the end of each season. If our estimate of the team’s cap space is a negative number, it’s because contracts for some reported roster moves have not been officially submitted to the league office, or there is a difference between publicly available salary information and the official figures.

Cap space calculation
Salary data shown in the table is from Spotrac.com, which estimates the team’s salary cap space to be $4.2 million.
This cap figure is based on a total team salary cap of $294.4 million, plus $336,000 in 2025 rollover and $9.8 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 otherwise missing contracts. The amounts shown in parentheses are estimated cap space decreases for each contract. These could change when actual figures are available.
- None at this time
With these adjustments (if any) included, the team’s cap space should be $4.2 million.
Remember: salary cap figures are estimates based on publicly available contract information, which can be misunderstood, rounded or inaccurately reported. Only the NFL, the involved teams and players know the precise figures. Therefore, any salary cap calculation must be taken with a grain of salt.
