How this endpoint behaves
Query parameters: slug (required) is a host-free NFL team salary page path such as nfl/san-francisco-49ers/salary-cap. Discover team and tab slugs through /sportskeeda/page-options. q (optional, up to 100 characters) matches a player-name substring without case sensitivity. sort_by is optional and accepts exactly player, cap_number, cut_pre_june_1_dead_money, cut_pre_june_1_cap_saving, cut_post_june_1_dead_money, cut_post_june_1_cap_saving, trade_pre_june_1_dead_money, trade_pre_june_1_cap_saving, trade_post_june_1_dead_money, trade_post_june_1_cap_saving, restructure_cap_saving, or extension_cap_saving. order requires sort_by and accepts exactly asc or desc; its default is asc. Without sorting, the upstream order is preserved.
Returns the team summary amounts when published, every player row, four cut/trade scenario pairs, restructure and extension savings, and the expanded salary breakdown. status is ok when the page publishes player data and no_data when it publishes an empty cap table and blank summary; in the latter case the four amounts are null and players is empty. Money is reported as integer dollars, including negative savings. season is the year printed in the source summary; this may be older than the current season. Source rows missing required headings or fields return an upstream error.
