As the Pittsburgh Steelers continue to shape their 2023 90-man roster, just like every other NFL team they must make sure they are adhering to the salary cap rules. Fortunately for the Steelers, they have lots of wiggle room at this time before the added expenses come around at the start of the regular season. Until rosters are cut down to 53 players, only the top 51 salaries count towards the 2023 salary cap.
With the Steelers current salary cap space based off of these top 51 players, any player not in the top 51 who makes the roster will give some salary cap relief even if it’s only a small amount.
