Tracking the Patriots' contract incentives after Week 4 taken at BSJ Headquarters (Patriots)

A team's adjusted cap consists of three numbers


  1. League Cap Number

  2. Prior Year Carryover Adjustments for Likely To Be Earned (LTBE)/Not Likely To Be Earned (NLTBE) incentives

  3. Adjustments for Likely To Be Earned (LTBE)/Not Likely To Be Earned (NLTBE) incentives. In 2017 the Patriots were debited a total of $231,847 against their 2017 adjusted cap number because of LTBE/NTLBE calculations.
