The Atlanta Falcons could use some more cap space this coming offseason as they attempt to recover from an abomination of a season. Fortunately, they’ll be getting it, along with 31 other NFL teams.
The NFL’s salary cap is expected to rise by $10-$14 million in 2019, a huge increase for a league that was supposed to be in trouble a short time ago. For the Falcons, who may be on the cusp of making a few key cuts to the roster, it’s adding to a windfall that might allow them to re-make the weakest spots on their roster in short order.
