This off-season presents a number of challenges for the New York Giants and teams across the NFL. With the projected salary cap expected to drop a minimum of $15 million, teams will be shedding players to get underneath the cap.
The reality is, the Giants are $3 million over the cap right now, so we should expect them to cut several players, including wide receiver Golden Tate and left tackle Nate Solder.
There’s only so much money they can open up before they are forced to renegotiate contracts to lower the amount of dead money they have to pay out in 2021.
