NFLPA takes away some of Rams' 2016 salary cap space
NEW ORLEANS, LA - JANUARY 31:
By: Simon A Chester | 3 minutes ago
On Monday the NFLPA released revised figures for each NFL team’s salary cap, just in time for the new financial year, which begins tomorrow at 4 p.m. ET.
For half of the 32 teams it resulted in gaining more salary cap space, but the other half saw a reduction in their cap number. Unfortunately, the Los Angeles Rams were in the wrong half:
In practical terms, the Rams had their salary cap number reduced by $538,332 according to the NFLPA’s own website.
This is not an astronomical figure by any means, and for a team with as much cap space as the Rams already have, it makes little difference. But for a team short of cap space these reductions have been painful. The Denver Broncos, for example, had their salary cap reduced by over $4 million.
