Share of the cap, season by season
The contract as the cap moves
Three lines: the share in the season it was signed (dotted), the share the cap was expected to leave it (dashed: the cap announced on the signing date, grown 3.5% a year), and the share as the cap actually was or is announced (solid). The shaded band is where the share lands if the cap follows the fan.
Against a 3.5% expectation, this deal over 2 seasons with a cap on file.
- 2025–26: of $95.5M (actual cap) · expected 4.3% of $95.5M · gap
- 2026–27: of $104.0M (announced cap) · expected 4.2% of $98.8M · gap
- Flat-cap tax (+) or windfall (−)
