The 2017 salary cap is set to an even $167 million. The Cowboys originally were thought to be carrying over $2.4 million of unused 2016 cap space to the new year, but it appears a league-wide adjustment to every team’s rollover amount has increased that figure by a few million, and not many have noticed.

According to Over The Cap and confirmed by the numbers on the NFLPA’s own website, Dallas is working with a salary cap limit just north of $172.6 million.

There is no official announcement as to the details of each team’s adjustments. However, it is likely that the initial carryover amounts did not include the right sizing of likely-to-be-earned (LTBE) and not-likely-to-be-earned (NLTBE) incentive clauses in contracts and bonuses which may have been returned for various reasons. Teams can also be awarded cap credits for various reasons.

Regardless of the nature, the NFLPA website is the official source of cap space information and their total of $172,658,249 will be the number used until otherwise informed.
