The 2022 NFL regular season will get underway on Thursday night and on Sunday the Pittsburgh Steelers will have their first game on the road against the Cincinnati Bengals. On this momentous day, it’s now a wonderful time to look at where the Steelers sit from a salary cap perspective after tracking their course all throughout the offseason.
The Steelers currently sit $8,600,587 under the cap as of Thursday morning and that number is probably unlikely to change prior to Sunday’s Week 1 game. That number is also quite different from $9,861,987 listed on the NFLPA site and that’s because the site is behind a few days in transactions and also due to them not yet flipping away from the Rule of 51.
