Over the Cap as the 49ers sitting around $8.4 million in cap space a week ahead of the regular season. Our resident salary cap guru, Jason Hurley, has the Niners over the cap by $1.94 million. That includes all 78 players, but it’s worth noting that Nick Bosa may not count against the cap since he’s not reported yet.
Bosa’s contract extension should have a significant effect on the Niners cap, but not in a way most would think. Over the Cap has a Bosa extension saving the 49ers north of $13.
