With the post-June 1st release of corner Byron Jones today the Miami Dolphins have, according to overthecap.com, $14,914,327 in cap space going forward into the rest of the offseason. Along with Jones’ cut, there will be a variety of other cuts made around the league both today and in the coming days/weeks as teams look to clear cap space or to make room for another player.
Now the Phins front office must decide what to do with the additional cap space. The team could now afford to make another splash signing, or more than one smaller signing, or choose to hold onto all or some of the money for when injuries strike during the season, or any combination of the three.
