Lions unlock cap space by reshaping Sewell and St. Brown contracts

The Detroit Lions converted large portions of two stars’ 2026 salaries into signing bonuses, shifting cap hits into future years and creating substantial 2026 cap space. Penei Sewell’s 2026 salary was reduced to $1.3M with an $18.6M signing bonus spread over five years, while Amon-Ra St. Brown converted $26M of his $27.5M salary. The moves cut 2026 cap hits by roughly $15M for Sewell and about $21M for Brown, but push new cap costs into later seasons, leaving Detroit with around $38M in cap space—the second-most in the NFL behind the 49ers.
