In under a week, all 32 NFL teams will begin reporting for training camp, leaving several rookies in danger of holdouts. 25 draft picks remain unsigned, with many of them likely to miss practice unless future agreements can be reached swiftly.
After 257 players were selected in the 2025 NFL Draft, 31 of them were without contracts by Thursday. However, four second-round players managed to sign their deals on July 17.
Notable Holdouts
- Tre Harris, a receiver for the Los Angeles Chargers, was the first to officially hold out, not showing up on the first day of training camp.
- Currently, Shemar Stewart, the Bengals’ first-round pick, is at the center of negotiations, facing potential challenges due to new terms in his contract that differ from past agreements.
Current Status of Unsigned Players
- Total remaining unsigned: 27 players, posing a threat to training sessions and the franchise. The Bengals have yet to sign their top two draft choices, intensifying the situation for Stewart.
