Hello and welcome to the Seahawkers podcast.

I'm Brandon Schultz, and I am joined by a couple of my good buddies.

Clinton Bonner and Adam Emmert and gentlemen, our Seattle Seahawks, along with other teams in the NFL,

they've got some more money to spend.

We got the news here this past week that salary cap going up a little more than expected.

Last year, I believe it was around $225 million in that type of range, And it's going up almost $30 million.

When I looked at the projected cap just, oh, gosh, I think a couple of days ago on over the cap,

they had it locked in around like 254th.

And it was because it was right at that spot where the Seahawks, well, they were over it initially.

And then they made the move with Gino Smith, restriction, some things. And then they're right at that number.

And then the news came out that they, it was higher than usual. And now the Seahawks, they have like 12 million to spend according to over the cap.

Now, you have to account for your draft picks, which is like another 5 million,

which leaves them with 7 million to spend right now. But they haven't made any moves apart from the Gino Smith News.

It feels good in a way to know that at least there's some room now when people go to the websites and do their only their all their salary cap looking and it's not a number that's in the red.

How you doing that?

That does feel good, man.

And I just want to thank Taylor Swift personally for the extra cap space when everybody was super angry about her being on the screen for 55 seconds during the

Super Bowl, it actually generated a bunch more revenue for the league that, I mean,

not that the billionaire owners are trickling at all down, but it's trickling down to the

players to a degree here.

And I think that's a good thing.

So thank you, Tatee. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you, Tate. That's, that's a great way to put it.
