The Pittsburgh Steelers have now agreed to trade G Kevin Dotson to the Los Angeles Rams as of Sunday night and assuming he passes his physical, that deal will become official. There are some small salary cap ramifications as a result of this trade that barring any additional unknown details at this point, will result in the Steelers clearing a little bit of 2023 salary cap space.
For starters, Dotson was scheduled to earn $2.743 million in 2023 and that was a result of him qualifying for a Proven Performance Escalator raise in his first three seasons in the NFL with the Steelers.
