That\u2019s the 18th-most in the NFL for the upcoming season and is plenty to work with, especially if the Rams want to sign a free agent before Week 1 or make a big trade before the deadline.<\/p>\n<p>All three of the aforementioned players are counting against the cap as top-51 contracts on the current roster, but there\u2019s no penalty if the Rams decide to cut Kendrick before the season begins. Cutting Humphries or Quessenberry will come with dead cap charges of $2.34 million and $1.13 million, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Rams Wire on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TheRamsWire\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:X;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">X<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Ramswire\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Facebook;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@ramswire\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Threads;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Threads<\/a>\u00a0for more coverage!<\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared on Rams Wire: <a href=\"https:\/\/theramswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/nfl\/rams\/2025\/07\/02\/nfl-salary-cap-rams-space-humphries-quessenberry-kendrick\/84449059007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Salary cap: Rams update following latest free-agent signings;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Salary cap: Rams update following latest free-agent signings<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"During their offseason program, the Los Angeles Rams shuffled the roster a few times.
