The second round of the 2025 NFL Draft has been a nightmare for general managers ahead of training camp.
It’s July 13, and only two of the 32 picks have signed their rookie contracts so far.
The only second-rounders signed are the Nos. 33 and 34 picks, the Browns’ Carson Schwesinger and the Texans’ Jayden Higgins, who each agreed to fully-guaranteed deals in May.
That’s reportedly been the cause of this year’s second-round contract rift between teams and players, with league offices remaining unwilling to hand out similar deals to their Day 2 picks.
