In mid-December, it was announced that the 2024 salary cap outlook was a little more bleak than previously imagined. Although this didn’t greatly affect many teams, the Chargers had one of the largest projected cap deficits, so this made journey to cap compliance $14,000,000 more difficult than originally thought.
