Read in app

The NFL Players Association has announced that the 2016 salary cap will be $155.27 million. Based on that number (along with rollover cap space from last season) the 32 NFL teams combined will have $906 million in cap space to spend when free agency opens on March 9.

Of course, some teams have more space to work with than others. At the top of the list are the Jacksonville Jaguars and Oakland Raiders who both have close to $75 million in cap space. At the other end, there are three teams, including the Super Bowl Champion Denver Broncos, who have one week to cut some more salaries and get under the cap.

Here is how much cap space all 32 teams have.
