The Seattle Seahawks have saved a nice chunk of salary cap space for the 2023 season by restructuring the contract for strong safety Jamal Adams.
According to Field Yates at ESPN, Seattle will save $6.613 million.
Effective today at 4 PM ET, the NFL's Top 51 cap space rule went away for the season.
