No team has more money committed to the players on their current roster than the Dallas Cowboys, whose players collectively have contracts worth $680.8 million, according to Spotrac, more than $30 million more than any other team and nearly twice as much as the Oakland Raiders ($385.2 million).
Things looks a little different if we just consider guaranteed portions of contracts. The Cowboys come in at No. 5 in the NFL with $263.9 million in guaranteed money committed to players, 38.8% of the total. The Kansas City Chiefs lead the way in total guaranteed ($297.0 million) while the St. Louis Rams top the league in percent-guaranteed (46.7%).
The New England Patriots have the least amount in guaranteed contracts at $145.1 million, just 35.2% of their total while the Pittsburgh Steelers have the lowest percentage of guaranteed contracts at 29.1%.
