32 million

we now have 32 million in dead money. wow. is this mostly from kicking the can down the road?

 

Pretty much, bringing Ben, Ebron and Juju back in 2021 accounts for nearly $20m and then Tuitts retirement as well.

 

Just curious what is league average?

You can see them all here, huge spread from a couple of million (Chargers) right up to $60m +

Average at a glance appears to be somewhere in the middle $20m + but haven’t calculated it or anything

 

Initially i was thinking members for this site..
CLICKBAIT

 

I wonder how much dead money the Cowboys have?

 

A big portion of that is the readjustment after the covid season where the cap shrank. A bit above the average, but it seems a lot of teams are there..so not to concerned.

 

Yeah, the Ben contract was beyond stupid.

 

I thought it was predictions for threads started declaring the end of the season before it’s begun

 

another 2.691 mil. in PS players and 3.058 mil. in injured reserve players added to the dead money. also 2-3 mil. carried into the season most likely for injuries. probably around 41 million not going to the 53 man roster.

 

Those don’t count towards the “dead money “ number.

 

no but they count towards the cap overall and not towards the 53.

 

I thought it was the top 51?

 

until the season starts.

 

just restructured TJ. we were down to 1.9 mil to go into the season, so we needed money. https://steelersdepot.com/2022/09/r...watts-contract-freeing-up-6-75m-in-cap-space/
