Bengals cap space update after season ends

A look at Bengals cap space as the offseason begins.

The Cincinnati Bengals enter a critical offseason with plenty of cap space to work on the roster.

After landing at 9-8 in one of the toughest divisions ever and making a first wave of offseason moves, the Bengals have roughly $60 million in free cap space entering the offseason, per the numbers at Spotrac.

That’s good for the sixth-highest mark in the NFL right now, with the top spot sitting on $85 million (Washington).

Of course, the catch when looking at this number is that the Bengals have a massive list of free agents, including names like Tee Higgins, DJ Reader, Jonah Williams and Tyler Boyd, to name a few.

On top of that, the Bengals will need to pay up on another draft class, and outside free agents and potential extensions for now-eligible guys like Ja’Marr Chase.

For now, though, the Bengals appear to have plenty of flexibility before making any other moves that might free up even more cap space.
