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.
