I don't mean turnover as in fumbles and interceptions, but turnover as in personnel. I think that we'll see teams reacting to the reduced salary cap by not signing as many lucrative free agent deals to players at or near the end of their career, but rather opting to fill out their rosters with younger, healthier, lower costing players.
This is a big deal as you stated. Teams are used to cap increasing 10 to 15 million, instead it will reduce by 25 million per team.
So, a bunch of teams will be forced to dump players due to cap issues. It is a terrible year (2021) to be a FA or be cut. I see lots of players signing 1 year team friendly deals praying more money available in 2022.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
