Rams to release sack leader Leonard Floyd to reduce salary-cap problems

LOS ANGELES — The Rams, in another major move to cut costs, plan to release edge rusher Leonard Floyd on Friday, people with knowledge of the situation said.

The people requested anonymity because they are not authorized to speak publicly about a transaction that was not completed.

The salary cap for the 2023 season is $224.8 million. The Rams currently are about $16 million over the cap, according to overthecap.com.
