With just days to go before the Chicago Bears open training camp, one issue continues to linger and has become a problem. It's the league-wide conundrum with second-round picks having yet to sign their rookie contracts.
Up until Thursday, only two of them had signed: Jayden Higgins (Texans) and Carson Schwesinger (Browns). But, the San Francisco 49ers just announced the signing of their second rounder, defensive tackle Alfred Collins, to a 4-year, $10.3 million deal with $9 million guaranteed.
Now, that gives Ryan Poles a much better outline for the Bears' three second-round picks in Luther Burden III, Ozzy Trapilo and Shemar Turner.
