Rams among teams yet to sign rookie quarterback Ty Simpson
Summary

Four quarterbacks from the 2026 NFL Draft are still unsigned, including Ty Simpson of the Los Angeles Rams. Simpson, drafted 13th overall, is expected to receive a fully guaranteed four-year contract worth around $25.4 million. The lack of contracts for these quarterbacks has been attributed to minor negotiations surrounding offset language. Training camp is approaching, creating a soft deadline for these deals. The situation reflects ongoing trends in rookie contracts since the implementation of the rookie wage scale in 2011.
