New NFL Revenue Deal Means Cuts Coming

The NFL and NFLPA have agreed on a deal that will spread lost revenue this year over the next few years, in terms of lower team salary caps next year, and perhaps/probably the next few years. The NFL will take a significant hit to revenue as stadiums will be largely empty this year, due to the pandemic. That revenue loss could also be compounded to the extent games are not played as well.

Part of the agreement, apparently, is that the salary cap next year will be set at a minimum of $175 million per team.
