Well overthecap is still showing Zeke's 2023
salary cap amount as over $16 million at his
player page -but- it's showing the Cowboys
cap space available going up to $13,549,745,
so for reasons unknown they're now showing
the Cowboys having the 16th-largest salary ...
... cap available. I just don't get it - maybe
they'll show Zeke's new salary cap amount
at his player page tomorrow, maybe not, I
simply don't understand how the NFL's sal-
ary cap works, sometimes it's comprehen-
sible, all-too-often it's not, & one needs a ...
... Certified Public Accountant to try to fig-
ure out what's actually going on.
