A look at how much cap space each NFL team rolled over to 2021, from the Browns ($30,366,604) to the Ravens ($586,822).

It’s not much, but it’s something. The New Orleans Saints have initially reported just over $4.1 million in unused salary cap space to roll over into the 2021 fiscal year, per ESPN’s Field Yates. That number will be vetted by the NFL and adjusted for a variety of minor transactions and cap credits before being factored into each team’s final tally, as is the case every year.
And the Saints will need every penny. Depending on which estimate you’re using, they’re well over the projected salary cap by as much as $100 million. The NFL and NFL Players Association negotiated an agreement that will keep the cap from dropping beneath $175 million in 2021, and there’s optimism that it could rise to as high as $195 million once all is said and done. But there won’t be the annual rise New Orleans has planned for due to revenue losses during the COVID-19 pandemic.
So every bit helps, including this $4.1 million (and some change). The Saints’ salary cap team has done such an effective job working with always-limited resources that they should be able to clear this hurdle, too. But there are still plenty of tough decisions ahead, which we’ll be sure to cover.
