The Denver Broncos made the decision to move on from veteran cornerback AJ Bouye, a trade acquisition in the 2020 offseason.
Moving on from Bouye will ultimately save the Broncos over $13 million in total cap space for 2021, no small figure especially considering the league’s salary cap could drop from just under $200 million to under $181 million because of the impact COVID-19 had in the course of the last year.
Because of the lowered salary cap, the Denver Broncos made the wise move to roll over just under $18 million in cap space from 2020 to 2021, giving them one of the more favorable cap situations in the entire NFL.
