Not sure where OP got the number but if it came from the team or a national reporter it may very likely be correct.
The cap number came from multiple sources...here is one of them
#NFL informed clubs yesterday that the ‘22 season salary cap is $208,200,000. Including important projected benefits, and the performance-based pay pool, the total projected player cost per club is $284,367,000. A look at the cap over the years pic.twitter.com/TzD8aAf8cm

#Bengals got word last night, as did the rest of the league, that the working salary cap for 2022 season is $208,200,000. Including the franchise tag for Jessie Bates, the Bengals are at $161,000,000. Critical to understand cap charges differ from FA offers.
