The slow-moving market for 2025 NFL rookie contracts is beginning to loosen as several clubs announced signings ahead of the opening of training camps next week. The Chicago Bears reached a four-year agreement with second-round defensive tackle Shemar Turner, making him only the fourth player selected in this year’s second round to finalize a deal. Turner’s signing follows weeks of impasse after early second-round picks secured unprecedented fully guaranteed contracts, prompting other players at the round to hold out for similar terms. His agreement leaves 28 second-round selections still without deals. In Denver, first-round cornerback Jahdae Barron agreed to a four-year contract valued at roughly $18 million, including a $9.8 million signing bonus. The accord ensures the Broncos’ top pick will report with the rest of the team’s rookies on Wednesday and leaves only second-round running back RJ Harvey unsigned from Denver’s class. The Jacksonville Jaguars, meanwhile, completed their rookie slate by inking fourth-round linebacker Jack Kiser, giving the club contracts for all nine of its 2025 draft choices. Front-office executives around the league expect the latest agreements to provide benchmarks that help resolve the remaining rookie negotiations before veterans report later this month.
