Chargers WR Tre Harris holding out as one of 30 unsigned second-round picks

Los Angeles Chargers second-round rookie wide receiver Tre Harris is a training camp holdout and could well be the first in an unprecedented number.

Harris did not report on Saturday -- the deadline for Bolts rookies -- NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported.

The Chargers are the first team to open training camp, with veterans set for a Wednesday reporting date. However, L.A. is hardly the only team dealing with a second-round conundrum.

Thirty of 32 second-round picks have yet to sign their rookie contracts because of a disagreement over guaranteed money, Rapoport reported.

No. 33 overall pick Carson Schwesinger of the Cleveland Browns -- the top pick of the second round -- has signed and so too has No. 34 pick Jayden Higgins of the Houston Texans.

Both Schwesinger and Higgins signed fully guaranteed deals, which NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero -- when Schwesinger's contract was announced by Cleveland -- could have a ripple effect. More than two months later, no other second-round selection has agreed to terms, so it's had a massive effect.

Cincinnati Bengals first-round pick (No. 17 overall) Shemar Stewart and Denver Broncos first-rounder (No. 20) Jahdae Barron are the only opening-round selections unsigned. Stewart and the Bengals' contract impasse has also been related to contract guarantees.
