NFL teams now know what it will cost them in 2022 if they want to place franchise or transition tags on players.
The league sent a memo to its teams revealing the numbers ahead of Tuesday's deadline:

Teams have until 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday to place the franchise or transition tags on players, which will prevent them from entering free agency. Teams can designate one player with a tag to essentially lock them in for the 2022 campaign and perhaps open a larger window to discuss long-term contract extensions.
