The Denver Broncos have officially left the Cincinnati Bengals all alone in the "unsigned first-round pick" department. Cornerback Jahdae Barron, the Broncos' first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft and the 20th overall pick, has finally signed his four-year rookie contract.
Every year, player agents are working to get their guys the most guaranteed money possible, and the biggest signing bonuses and up-front guaranteed money they can. The CBA mandates that players cannot show up to training camp without a contract signed, and because all rookie contracts are essentially pre-determined, it's extremely rare in today's NFL to see rookies not showing up.
