Happy June, Raiders to get salary cap relief

The calendar has turned to June and that’s significant for the Las Vegas Raiders.

After Wednesday, the team will get a reported $19.75 million in salary-cap room from the earlier releases of linebacker Cory Littleton and defensive end Carl Nassib. Each team gets two post-June 1 cap designations and Littleton and Nassib were the Raiders’ June 1 cuts this year.

With the influx of cap relief, the Raiders will have a new total of about $25 million in salary-cap room.

So, what will new Las Vegas general manager Dave Ziegler do with his new found cap room?
