Entering Week 1, the Los Angeles Rams were slightly over the salary cap – only by less than $1 million. However, they needed to get under the cap by Tuesday afternoon, so they made one move that freed up a bunch of space.
According to Field Yates of ESPN, they restructured Tyler Higbee’s contract by converting $4.75 million of his base salary into a signing bonus. They also added three void years to spread out the money, creating a total of $3.8 million in cap space this year.
