NFL teams must follow a strict salary cap structure each season. There is a limit to how much NFL teams are allowed to spend on players' salaries. Sometimes calculating the exact amount of cap space a team has can be complicated, because of factors like deferrals and dead money, but the cap is $182.5 million for the 2021 season. Here are the NFL teams with the most cap space right now.
5 NFL teams with most remaining cap space
#1 Jacksonville Jaguars
The Jaguars have the most remaining cap space of all NFL teams by far. They have over $30 million in space, which is $10 million more than any of the other NFL teams. They are in a complete rebuild right now, building their team around rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Their cap space will give them the flexibility to support their young quarterback as best as possible this offseason.
#2 Philadelphia Eagles
In a bit of a rebuild themselves, the Philadelphia Eagles have plenty of cap space to play with. They are currently analyzing their young quarterback, Jalen Hurts, to see if he is their future solution. They have also been one of the NFL teams linked to superstar quarterback Deshaun Watson amid trade rumors. They have the cap flexibility to afford Watson if they go that route.
#3 Denver Broncos
When Aaron Rodgers was seeking a trade this past offseason, the Denver Broncos were one of the NFL teams reportedly interested. Rodgers ended up staying in Green Bay for now, while the Broncos settled for Teddy Bridgewater. They will have enough cap space to pursue Rodgers again if the Packers do in fact make him available. For now, he is off the market.
#4 Washington Football Team
The Washington Football Team is another on the list of NFL teams that could be in the quarterback market. They signed Ryan Fitzpatrick this offseason but he was injured in the very first game of the season. They will continue to evaluate what they have in Taylor Heinicke, but if they decide to shop for a quarterback again this offseason, they have cap space to play with.
#5 Cincinnati Bengals
The Cincinnati Bengals also qualify as one of the NFL teams in a rebuild. To their credit, they appear to be ahead of schedule this year. Young quarterback Joe Burrow looks impressive with solid weapons around him. The Bengals have cap space to play with to improve their offensive line and their defense.
