The NFL free agency tampering period gets started next Monday, and free agency formally opens a week from tomorrow. In the meantime, the league released information on the 2019 salary cap late last week. That included the total cap, and the tender salaries for franchise players, transition players, and restricted free agents. We’ve discussed these separately, but here’s a rundown of all that went down with the finalization of the 2019 salary cap.
Salary cap
The cap was announced at $188.2 million, leaving the San Francisco 49ers with roughly $67.4 million in space.
