Ravens salary cap: Positional breakdowns and financial outlook ahead of NFL free agency

Here’s an early look at the Baltimore Ravens’ salary cap, positional breakdowns, and financial outlook ahead of 2024 NFL free agency

The Ravens voided four contracts on Monday, accruing $8.3 million in a dead salary cap hit.

Baltimore will enter the 2024 NFL free agency with urgent decisions to make on Justin Madubuike, Patrick Queen, and 20+ other unrestricted free agents.

The Ravens have about $5 million in salary cap space and the No. 30 overall pick in April’s NFL draft courtesy.

With the new league year quickly approaching, we’re looking at Baltimore’s salary cap, with a positional breakdown and financial outlook before free agency.

Ravens owe $8.3M in dead money after voiding four contracts

The Baltimore Ravens now owe $8.3 million in dead money after voiding four contracts and having those players enter Free Agency

With the Super Bowl in the rearview mirror, the Ravens and 31 other NFL teams will start financially retooling to advance to the 2024-25 postseason.

Joel Corry of CBS Sports recently looked inside at key offseason dates starting with the first week of the 2024 league year, which begins March 13.

Some dates will free up cap space for Baltimore, while others will force GM Eric DeCosta to make hard decisions.

Baltimore had a 4:00 PM EST deadline to extend six players to face dead salary cap hits, and only Nelson Agholor agreed to a new deal. 

At 4 p.m. Monday, the contracts of four pending free agents — right guard Kevin Zeitler, running back Gus Edwards, safety Geno Stone and cornerback Rock Ya-Sin — will void.

Void years are a way for teams to manipulate the salary cap by placing fake years on the end of a contract to defer cap charges to the future.

Odell Beckham Jr.’s one-year, $15 million contract was recently reworked to remove void years. That allows the Ravens to designate Beckham as a post-June 1 release if an extension is not reached by March 16.

Baltimore will now carry nearly $10 million in dead money on their 2024 salary cap since none of those five players were re-signed.
