According to Dave Bryan’s latest salary update, the Pittsburgh Steelers are a little over $16 million under the cap, but the team likely won’t be spending up to the cap this season. Despite the fact the Steelers usually keep some cap space available for potential in-season moves, the Steelers have a number of potential extensions due up after the 2025 season, and Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette thinks the Steelers would be wise to roll over some cap space to account for those extensions, especially with the uncertainty of the team’s quarterback play in 2024 and potentially a need to pay Russell Wilson and/or Justin Fields.
