According to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team, the 49ers will free up $5.6 million in cap space on Monday due to the post-June 1 release designations of defensive linemen Javon Hargrave and Maliek Collins.
Both players were released in March, but by designating them as post-June 1 cuts, the 49ers were able to spread the salary cap impact over multiple years.
Over The Cap now lists the 49ers with just over $50 million in available cap space—a figure that will likely be adjusted following the accounting of these post-June 1 moves.
On Friday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the 49ers were finalizing a trade for Huff, sending a mid-round draft pick to the Eagles in exchange for the edge rusher. Philadelphia is expected to absorb $9.05 million of Huff's fully guaranteed $17 million salary, leaving San Francisco responsible for just under $8 million in 2025.
