Bills salary cap update after start of free agency

The Buffalo Bills current salary cap situation following the first wave of free agency.

The dust has settled after a thrilling start to the league’s new year for the Buffalo Bills.

Buffalo’s groundbreaking move to acquire wide receiver Stefon Diggs from Minnesota was just the beginning of an active start for the club. The Bills went on to re-sign guard Quinton Spain while signing free agents Quinton Jefferson, Vernon Butler, AJ Klein, Mario Addison, Josh Norman, Tyler Matakevich, and Taiwan Jones.

The club extended the contract of Jordan Poyer, as the safety signed a two-year, $19.5 million contract to keep the standout in Western New York through 2022.

The Bills entered the free agency period with approximately $78 million in cap space. After all of the deals, they have approximately $32.5 million remaining in space below the cap maximum, according to Spotrac.

Approximately $4 million of the cap space will be dedicated to the team’s draft picks this April.

Buffalo’s cap space is also buoyed by rolling over some of their cap space from last season into this year’s figures.
