49ers have 3rd-highest adjusted salary cap number

The NFL on Monday released the adjusted salary cap numbers each team will work with in 2023, and the 49ers came in near the top of the league.

Adjusted cap numbers are the base salary cap, plus rollover space, plus adjustments up or down for incentives and other roster bonuses given out the previous year.

The league set its base salary cap at $224,800,000. The 49ers’ number came in at $237,520,268. That means they had nearly $13,000,000 in rollover cap space and adjustments. They’ll operate with that number in 2023 instead of the league’s base amount.

San Francisco landed with the third-highest adjusted cap number in the NFL behind Cleveland and Carolina. Here is the full list via ESPN’s Field Yates:

San Francisco has $4,391,088 in effective cap space (their cap space once they have 51 players signed) per Over the Cap. That number could see a significant increase with a handful of restructured contracts later on this offseason.
