The NFL last week revealed that the floor for the 2021 salary cap is $180 million, with the possibility that the actual cap could possibly rise between now and the new league year beginning on March 17. The NY Giants better hope it does.

Despite the flexibility of having several high-priced veterans who played diminishing roles last season, who could be cut to create further spending flexibility under the cap, the NY Giants currently have just $906,000 in cap space, according to OverTheCap.
