Cowboys lose $10 million in cap space, Redskins lose $36 million in space. Can split it over 2012 and 2013 any way they want. More at ESPN.

All that money goes to 28 other teams -- $1.6 million each -- except for Saints and Raiders, who don't get any but don't lose any.

$38 million stretched over 2012 and 2013 is very bad news for the Washington Redskins. According to CSNWashington’s Rich Tandler, this could be an aftereffect of the way Albert Haynesworth and DeAngelo Hall’s contract was structured.

It’s unclear if Washington can appeal this. The story is still developing, we’ll update you on the latest.
