Das stimmt so nicht. Ein Spieler der auf IR ist, zählt vollständig gegen den Salary Cap. Das war beim letzten CBA so und das ist bei diesem CBA so. Da gab es keine Änderung.

Und hier kann man das ganze auch Nachlesen, wenn man die Zeit hat ;-):

Between the start of a league year (around March 1) and opening day only the 51 highest paid players count against the Salary Cap, even though the team could have up to 80 players on the roster at times. Prorated bonus amounts from players not on the top 51 salaries and any dead cap money also counts during this period. This is called the "Rule of 51". From opening day until the end of the season all players on the roster (including injured reserve) and practice squad count against the cap.
