CAP AND ROSTER

[MGB01]

SALARY CAP: The 2025 salary cap is $153.4 million, a 14% increase over 2023.

ROSTERS: Each team has a 53-man roster with a ten-man practice squad.

INJURED RESERVE: Players going on injured reserve will be out for four games minimum. A player on injured reserve cannot be traded (as he is not on the active roster). Any player put on injured reserve before the roster deadline (2/9/2025) will be on IR for the season.

PLAYERS SIGNED OFF OTHER TEAMS' PRACTICE SQUADS: Must remain on the 53-man roster for three weeks or, in the event of a week 15 or later addition, the end of the regular season.

WAIVER CLAIMS: For the first four games of the regular season, the 2024 draft order will be used for waiver claims. After that, it will be an "in-season draft order" through the end of the season.

GAMEDAY: 47 actives (with a third QB dressed), no positional designations or required splits.
