Earlier today, the NFL Players Association announced (via Twitter) salary cap carryovers for all 32 NFL teams for the 2021 season. Effectively, teams are able to overturn their unused cap from the previous season. So, when the 2021 salary cap numbers become official, they can be added to the amount carried forward by each team to determine the official club cap for 2021.
This follows today’s news that the NFL has raised its salary cap to $ 180MM for 2021. This total could give us an indication of the maximum salary cap, which could reach north of $ 190MM. The salary cap was $ 198.2 million for the 2020 campaign.
As detailed by the NFLPA, the league will take over $ 315.1 million from the 2020 season, averaging $ 9.8 million per team. The Browns lead the league with a sum of 30.4 million dollars and are the only team in the top five that made the playoffs.
