TORONTO — The Canadian Football League’s salary cap will rise to over $6.2 million in 2026.
The CFL and its players’ union made the announcement on Friday.
Revenue for the league reached $10 million more than the baseline established in 2024 when the CFL’s collective bargaining agreement’s revenue growth sharing model was triggered for the first time since its implementation in 2022.
As a result, the CFL Players’ Association has allocated the majority of its share towards increasing the cap.
