DC.COM Blog: Salary Cap stuff
by Calvin Watkins
The NFLPA announced today that the salary cap for 2009 will be $123 million, up from $116 million.
So where does that leave the Cowboys?
Well, the team salary for the 2009 season is projected at $121 million, second most in the NFC East. That number can change, higher or lower, if the team releases players and signs them. Washington has the most at $128 million. The Cowboys are under the cap but are working to get about $7 million to $10 million underneath it by the time the 2009 season begins.
Cutting some players and restructuring current deals will help in the process.
