NFL Free Agency 2025: Teams with Most Salary-Cap Space Ahead of Wednesday's Signings

NFL free agency won't officially open until 4 p.m. ET on Wednesday, but agreements have been cascading through the transaction wire for the past several days.

A few teams moved to lock up impending free agents over the weekend, and the legal-contact window opened at noon ET on Monday. Many of the biggest names are now off the board, and a veritable boatload of cash has been spent.

However, solid talent is still available entering Wednesday, and some teams are well-positioned to make additional moves.

Free-agent contracts can become official on Wednesday, and teams have until 4 p.m. to be under the salary cap, so fans can expect a fair amount of activity. Here, you'll find a look at where each team stands against the salary cap and what could lie ahead.

While Tuesday's action wasn't quite as wild as Monday's it still opened with some significant moves.

The New York Giants scooped up the top remaining player on Bleacher Report's updated Day-2 big board when they agreed to a three-year, $45 million contract with safety Jevon Holland. The Minnesota Vikings added defensive tackle Jonathan Allen on a three-year, $60 million deal, and the Houston Texans made another significant trade.

Houston agreed to send guard Kenyon Green to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson.

Bleacher Report's Moe Moton provided grades for all of Tuesday's biggest deals.

The New Orleans Saints, meanwhile, restructured several more contracts in an effort to get under the cap. New Orleans entered the offseason with the league's worst cap situation and still faced a $16.5 million cap deficit as of Sunday.

The Kansas City Chiefs currently have the most cap work to do before 4 p.m. ET.

Though the New England Patriots were among the league's most active teams on Monday, they still have a surplus of cap space with which to work. Other teams with great financial flexibility include the Los Angeles Chargers, Tennessee Titans, Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks.

The Seahawks traded both quarterback Geno Smith and wide receiver D.K. Metcalf over the weekend before agreeing to a three-year, $100.5 million deal with quarterback Sam Darnold on Monday.

The New York Jets are expected to officially release quarterback Aaron Rodgers on Wednesday.

There's plenty of free-agency drama left to unfold, some of it including Rodgers. He and Russell Wilson are the two biggest pieces left on the quarterback carousel, and Rodgers is the one most are watching.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport told The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday that Rodgers will choose between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New York Giants.

Some quality non-quarterbacks are still available too, including pass-rusher Azeez Ojulari, cornerback Asante Samuel Jr., wide receiver Amari Cooper and guard Mekhi Becton.

There's room for a surprise or two as well. Players or teams can back out of agreements made during the legal-contact window until they're officially signed. Such occurrences are rare, but no deal is done until it's official.

Teams with cap flexibility may make some late pushes, and they're likely to dive even deeper into the player pool. Those on the other end of the spectrum may send more players back to the market to free up cap space or simply turn their attention to next month's draft.
