If GM Andrew Berry and the Cleveland Browns want to spend some money on free agents, they still have the ability to make things happen. The team sits comfortably with over $18 million in cap room after the first day of the NFL’s free agency legal tampering period.
While deals are not finalized until Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET, the Browns agreed-upon deal with safety John Johnson for four years and $33.75 million is factored into the cap equation. Per Over The Cap, that leaves the Browns with $18,251,244 as of Tuesday morning. At Spotrac, the estimated figure is slightly higher at $18,540,031.
The Browns rank 14th in available cap funds among the 32 NFL teams with either figure.
Cleveland still has the potential to offer contract extensions to some notable players, including QB Baker Mayfield. They can also restructure some veteran contracts, like DL Sheldon Richardson or WR Jarvis Landry, if they need additional funds.
