The NFL has not set its 2021 salary cap just yet, but the latest estimate from ESPN’s Adam Schefter doesn’t bring good news for the New Orleans Saints. Schefter reported Sunday that teams will be working with a cap in the $180 to $181 million range, which is a drop from last week’s $185 million projection.
