- The NFL salary cap for 2026 is projected to be between $301.2 million and $305.7 million per team, marking the first time it has surpassed $300 million. This represents a rise of about $20 million from 2025 and roughly $100 million since 2022, driven by new broadcast rights deals and higher overall revenue.[2][5]
- The cap figure for 2025 was reported as $277.5–$281.5 million, with $279.2 million commonly cited as the final figure after adjustments, reflecting a substantial increase over 2024’s cap. Multiple outlets highlighted this as the largest rise in NFL history at the time.[1][3][5]
- In 2024 the cap stood at $255.4 million, continuing a multi-year upward trend driven by media rights and league revenue growth.[1]
