The official numbers should be released today but its expected that the NFL will increase the salary cap by $10M.
Per NFL:
NFL Media’s Albert Breer reported Thursday the cap is expected to be set at $133 million, according to union and team sources. The official number could come as soon as Friday, according to Breer.
The $133 million salary cap figure would be an increase of nearly $10 million per team over 2013. The cap is primed to soar higher in 2015, after money from the league’s new television deals enter the equation.
ProFootballTalk first reported the updated figure.
The cap rise is good news for both teams seeking cap maneuverability and players who now begin to taste the fruits tied to the collective bargaining agreement signed in 2011. According to Breer, the structure of the CBA and the timing of the television deals sets the players up well from 2015 to 2020.
As soon as the official number is released, I will update.
