Sunday, June 2 is a date about one-third of the NFL has circled on the calendar in 2024, as all of the players who were cut with a post-June 1 designation earlier this offseason will officially be off the books, which usually frees up cap space.
When a player is cut with a post-June 1 designation, it allows the team to spread out the dead-cap hit over two seasons, but the player’s contract remains on the books until June 2 of the year they are cut.
There are a total of 12 teams around the NFL that have at least one player officially getting cut on Sunday, but one of those squads will not see a savings while another remains in limbo because of their particular situation.
However, 10 of the teams on the list are guaranteed to see at least some increase in cap space. Here’s a look at every post-June 1 cut going through on Sunday, with the amount saved and updated cap space figures coming from Over the Cap.
