The Seahawks are breathing a slight sigh of relief after the NFL raised its salary cap.
The league announced today that the 2025 salary cap has been set at a record $279.2 million per team.
It’s a nearly $24 million increase from last year.
The salary cap is calculated every year based on a formula tied to league revenues, which have increased in recent years because of new media rights deals.
Over the Cap currently projects the Seahawks to be roughly $6.8 million over the salary cap, which is the fourth-worst situation in the league.
All teams need to be under the cap by March 12.
