The NFL’s salary cap increased an unprecedent amount for the 2024 season.
The NFL announced Friday that 2024 salary cap is set $255.4 million per club.
“The 2024 salary cap will be $255.4 million per club, with an additional $74 million per club payment for player benefits, which includes performance based pay and benefits for retired players. Total 2024 player costs will be $329.4 million per club, or more than $10.5 billion league-wide,” the NFL said in a statement. “The unprecedented $30 million increase per club in this year’s salary cap is the result of the full repayment of all amounts advanced by the clubs and deferred by the players during the Covid pandemic as well as an extraordinary increase in media revenue for the 2024 season.”
The NFL’s salary cap was at $224.8 million in 2023, $208.2 million in 2022 and $182.5 in 2021.
The NFL’s 2024 salary cap official kicks in when the new league year begins at 4 p.m. ET on March 13.
