The CFL’s salary cap for the 2025 season has jumped over $400,000 due to increased league revenues, per sources.

Teams expected the salary cap limit to be $5.65 million for the 2025 season. However, it has jumped by $412,000 to $6,062,365 million — a 7.3 percent increase. The lift comes from the revenue growth sharing model in the collective bargaining agreement.

“This increase is a direct result of the dedication and sacrifices of our members, both past and present,” CFLPA president Solomon Elimimian said in a memo to union members. “For too long, salary cap growth has lagged behind the economic realities. With this adjustment, we’re seeing a much-needed correction, one that finally catches up to the rate of inflation and prioritizes the financial well-being of CFL players.”

This might explain some of the sizeable contracts that have been offered in the last couple of weeks.
