Wow. What are the outlays of other sports teams for a season? NFL, in what, mostly player salaries?

  No idea about the NFL, but top football (soccer for you Americans) clubs (Barcelona, Bayern München, etc.) have budgets in the 0.5B EUR range.

  NFL averages about $250m/team. That’s just player salaries and not coaches/trainers/physios etc

And this has resulted in teams spending silly money this year and last to "beat" the new caps. New wind tunnels, new factories, expensive software projects. All ploughed ahead this year so they don't have to go on the books after 2022.
