The NFL informed teams that the salary cap will fall in the range of $277.5 million to $281.5 million for the 2025 season, according to a league memo sent Wednesday and obtained by ESPN’s Dan Graziano.
That means the cap will rise by at least $22.1 million from last year’s $255.4-million mark. The cap has increased by more than $53 million over the past two years.
