The New Orleans Saints have been carefully navigating the salary cap for years, but the work done by general manager Mickey Loomis this offseason might be his best yet.
Loomis faced the daunting task of managing the Saints cap this offseason — an offseason in which the NFL’s salary cap shrunk for just the second time in league history.
As it stands, the Saints are officially under the cap — barely.
With just over $200,000 in cap space, per Over The Cap, the Saints will likely need to create a little more space before they even sign their top draft picks.
