With the league officially setting the 2022 salary cap at $208.2 million for each team, nothing much changes for the club. This has been the rumored number for months and teams have been making their calculations all along based on this projection, identifying how they will be able to shape their new rosters. Along with the announcement came a confirmation for each club of exactly how far under, or in the case of the Dallas Cowboys, over they are. - Dallas is $12.1 million in the hole, with an adjusted cap amount of $220.3 million. Knowing that the team wants to place a franchise tag on TE Dalton Schultz that will cost $10.9 million, that’s a neat and tidy $23 million of cap space the club must create by the start of the league year. The Cowboys have the perfect way to do so, and on Monday it was revealed they planed to exact those measures by restructuring the contracts of QB Dak Prescott and RG Zack Martin. -
