Episode Details

The NFL has raised the salary cap for the 2026 season to $301.2 million per team, including the Indianapolis Colts. This is a significant increase from the previous season and a substantial jump from the $208.2 million cap in 2022. Despite earlier projections of a higher cap, the Colts now have approximately $33.4 million in cap space, ranking them 13th in the league. General manager Chris Ballard plans to use this flexibility to strengthen the defense and make strategic moves in free agency. The teams biggest cap hits next year include wide receiver Michael Pittman, defensive tackle DeForest Buckner, guard Quenton Nelson, cornerback Charvarius Ward, and tackle Bernhard Raimann.
