A look at the possible cap casualties in preparation for free agency

After missing out on the playoffs in 2022, the Steelers have quite a bit to do this offseason to improve the team.

In order to make improvements at several different positions, and re-sign some key players headed for unrestricted free agency, the Steelers need to clear some salary cap space.

The NFL's expected salary cap for the 2023 season will be set at $225 million, and the Steelers are rolling over an additional $4,427,145 from 2022. If the NFL announces this number as the official cap in March, the Steelers' salary cap for 2023 will be $229,427,145.
