NFL salary cap going up $11 million to $188.2 million in 2019
NEW YORK — The NFL’s salary cap will jump $11 million next season to $188.2 million.
In the ninth year of the 10-year labor agreement, the cap moves up from $177.2 million. It has increased in every year of the contract, with the biggest move was from 2015 to 2016, when it went up nearly $12 million.
Clubs must reach 89 percent in cash spending, and the NFL Players Association said Friday that four teams are under that threshold: Dallas, Buffalo, Indianapolis and Houston.
