If you follow the NFLPA salary cap data report like I do, you may have noticed that the Pittsburgh Steelers lost $676,800 in salary cap space on Wednesday as they went from $6,519,614 in available space down to $5,842,814. This recent deduction was the annual place holder charge for offseason workout bonus charges.
The league charged all 32 teams $676,800 and that figure is determined by multiplying 90 players by $235 per day and then by 32, the number of organized team activity sessions planned. This place holder remains on the books until the actual workout bonus amounts for each team are calculated.
