The Detroit Lions slot into the upper third of the NFL cap spending for the 2022 season. As of July 2nd, the Lions have the 10th-highest cap obligation spending at $217.3 million.
Those figures break down by position group into more digestible pieces. There is some dead money on the books too, though significantly less than in prior years.
Here is how the Lions rank in cap spending at each position group for the coming season. These are cap figures, not salary spending.
