The Pittsburgh Steelers have been up against the NFL salary cap since the new league year started in March. The team cut cap-clogging players such as Mark Barron and Anthony Chickillo while restructuring the contracts of multiple players to get cap compliant. The Steelers needed such moves and they still need to make more moves before the start of the season. While the team is $5.7 million under the cap, there is still a host of expenses which need to be accounted for that are not showing up on the team’s ledger at Over the Cap.
