Not actually.
The estimated cap for 2021 is $175 mill, but the Bengals also have ~$11 mill in rollover.
So their adjusted salary cap is expected to be $186 mill.

The currently signed players are expected to take up $141.6 mill of that cap.
Dunlap has a dead cap of $2.36 mill, which brings the total up to $144 mill.
So $186 mill - $144 mill = $42 mill in cap space heading into the offseason.
