The Chicago Bears have signed second-round DT Shemar Turner to a rookie contract, per Ian Rapoport.
There has been a league-wide delay in signing second-round picks after the first two players in the round got fully guaranteed contracts.
However, the logjam was broken by the 49ers and second-round DT Alfred Collins, and that should help all the other players settle into their slots. The Bears have two more second-round picks to sign.
Rd | Pick | Player | Pos. | Note |
1 | 10 | Colston Loveland | TE | Signed |
2 | 39 | Luther Burden | WR | |
2 | 56 | Ozzy Trapilo | OT | |
2 | 62 | Shemar Turner | DT | Signed |
4 | 132 | Ruben Hyppolite II | LB | Signed |
5 | 169 | Zah Frazier | CB | Signed |
6 | 195 | Luke Newman | G | Signed |
7 | 233 | Kyle Monangai | RB | Signed |
