I also read something that said the NFLPA (the players union) is currently working under the assumption that it will be 180 million, which is slightly up from the 175 previously reported. But down from last year's 195 million, and significantly down from the estimated 210 million many had 2021 projected for prior to Covid.
One thing to consider: I guarantee to you there's a number of owners pushing for the cap to be as high as it possibly can. These are billionairs who won't even bat an eye at spending a few more million, even after a year of lost income, if it means their respective team is in a better place cap wise. And obviously the NFLPA would help lead the charge. I would not be shocked if this figure that gets released creaps back up towards 190 million.
saw something that they might not know the Cap till a few hours before the league year starts.
