Each of the NFL teams has officially submitted to the NFL the amount of 2024 salary cap space that they will carry over to the 2025 season. At the top of the list is the 49ers who will carry over $50.097 million to 2025. The 49ers created this much cap room by design through restructures in 2024 that were almost solely done to aid the team’s potential salary cap crunch in 2025. The Browns were 2nd with $41.951 million and they led the NFL in restructured contracts in 2024 for the same reason as the 49ers.
At the low end of the numbers were the Jets who only had $345,919 to carry over to 2025. They used up some cap room at the last minute to prepay some incentives, but in general they went all in on the year and had little to show for it. Carolina was next with $490,368 as they are still dealing with the fallout from decisions made in the past. The average carryover was $11,584,981 and the median was $6,348,893.
We have been using estimates for the carryover for all of our cap figures for 2025 and those have now been updated to reflect the real numbers. We will be adding in some estimated adjustments in the coming weeks and then change those when the NFL makes the numbers official. Here is the amount of carryover for each team:
