The 2025 NFL salary cap is projected to be significantly higher than initially expected, ranging between $277.5 million and $281.5 million per team. This increase is expected to provide more financial flexibility for teams, particularly the New York Giants. With an adjusted cap space rising from approximately $45 million to about $49 million, they are positioned well for offseason spending.

Despite having $27 million in dead money, mainly from Daniel Jones’ contract, the Giants may not need to restructure existing contracts to accommodate new acquisitions. However, the future of veteran players like Rakeem Nunez-Roches and Graham Gano remains uncertain, presenting potential cap-saving opportunities should they part ways. The upcoming draft also features a strong defensive line class, which could influence their decisions regarding current personnel.
