Overview

• Alfred Collins signed a four-year, $10.3 million contract that includes more than $9 million guaranteed.
• Collins became the third second-round pick to agree to terms this offseason after Jayden Higgins of the Houston Texans and Carson Schwesinger of the Cleveland Browns secured fully guaranteed deals.
• Before Collins’ deal, 30 of 32 second-round picks remained unsigned due to demands for higher guarantee figures.
• Negotiations stalled past mandatory reporting dates for training camp, creating risks of rookie absences and disrupted preparation.
• Baltimore Ravens linebacker Mike Green is among the remaining holdouts still negotiating guarantee terms following the new benchmark.
