Thread: Broncos have 3rd-most salary cap space in the NFL

Even after giving quarterback Russell Wilson a large contract extension, the Denver Broncos still have a healthy salary cap status.

Going into the 2022 NFL season, Denver has $11,560,045 in remaining salary cap space, according to ESPN’s Field Yates. That’s the third-highest total in the NFL, only trailing the Las Vegas Raiders ($16 million) and Cleveland Browns ($37.9 million).

Wilson’s new super contract is actually somewhat of a bargain for the Broncos, and it gives him very team-friendly cap hits through the 2024 season. By the time Wilson’s cap hits begin to surpass $50 million in 2025, other QBs will have been given even larger deals and the NFL’s salary cap will have increased significantly.

The early team-friendly nature of Wilson’s contract has left the team with about $11.56 million in remaining cap space this season. Any unused cap from the 2022 season will roll over and be added to the team’s 2023 total.

I’m all for that now with Denver lack of depth at WR position due to injuries we need all the help we can get.

Will Fuller would be a good idea. He's got deep speed, is great on scramble drills, and would fit Wilson's deep throws.

That cap space is going to be needed, when we have to bring in free agents to fill holes the next couple years while we wait on our picks to become relevant again.

Just putting it out there, 3rd round is fine, but not when you need higher tier talent.

I heard Julian Edelman is staying in shape!
