Payroll below the salary floor

[ScottPensFan66]

Need your assistance. I am getting a message that my salary is blow the cap floor. I have 23 players up. No more can be brought up. Only have 3 games left in the season. Have the max number of contracts as well. Feel like I am stuck. How can I rectify this, or am I out of luck and have to delete the franchise?
Thanks!

Sign a FA to a one year deal at a really overinflated price. If you have any highly paid injured players on IR try and activate them which should add to your payroll.

thanks!

I have 50/50 contracts, so I can't sign anyone or release any one.
The players on my IR are indefinite, so I can't even move them to the team.

Do you have a crappy half star prospect or player that is easily replaced?

Release them and then sign someone to that big one year, one way contract.

You could also edit somebody's contract to get over the floor.

How do I edit a contract?
I have 3 games left in the regular season.
Have 23 players up.
Have 50/50 contracts.
Can't release anyone
No players on the IR I can bring back
Totally stuck with this.
Should I be better off just deleting the franchise?
Not sure what to do!
Thanks

You have to turn on commissioner mode.

You should still be able to move them off the IR even if they’re out indefinitely. Unless they haven’t been on the IR for 7 days yet in which case you would have to wait until the 7 days are up.

If you can’t do that then release someone and sign someone to a huge deal.

After that just open up a players profile and click the edit button.

And the when you reach July 1st (and only then) you can edit the league and turn off the salary floor all together
