Salary cap likely to be no more than $183 million

Mike Florio 1 hr ago    

The floor for the 2021 salary cap has been set at $180 million. As
expected, the ceiling won’t be much higher.

As one source with knowledge of the dynamics has explained it to PFT, the
fact that the franchise-tag deadline wasn’t extended by the league and the
© Getty Images union can be interpreted as an indication that the cap won’t significantly
exceed the $180 million floor. Per the source, the cap will at most be $183
million.

It could have been a lot worse. As the NFL Players Association explained in an email to all players, a copy of
 PFT has obtained, the players received their full and complete pay in 2020, with not a penny placedin
which
escrow (unlike other sports leagues). Also, the union explained to players that, without the CBA finalized last
year by the league and the NFLPA or the negotiation in July that allow the season to proceed, the salary cap
would have been “tens of millions” below $180 million.

The union also anticipates that normal growth to the cap will resume in 2021, as the new TV deals kick in
and as stadiums (as expected) begin to fill with money-paying fans.

That’s good news for everyone — league, players, media, and fans. And it’s another sign that, gradually but
inevitably, normalcy will return.
