The NFL has raised the Salary Cap by 16.6 million dollars. This is huge for the teams and the players requesting more money.
The cap had been $198.2 million in 2020 before dropping to $182.5 million in 2021 as part of that process. From 2013 to 2020, the cap had been growing at a pace of $10.74 million a year.
This is a huge raise for some teams. The Bears are projected to have 100 million in salary cap space.
