The NFL has set the 2023 salary cap at $224.8 million, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero. That’s a $16.6 million increase from the 2022 season ($208.2 million).
For the Bears, they’re projected to have $98.6 million in available cap, which is the most in the NFL (by a wide margin). The next closest team is the Falcons ($56.4 million).
Chicago is sitting in a great position ahead of an important 2023 offseason, where general manager Ryan Poles will look to build up this roster.
But not every team is in a good position. There are 14 teams that are currently over the salary cap limit.
Here’s a look at every NFL team’s estimated cap space — based on a $224.8 million cap:
