The Los Angeles Chargers are making the rounds for the wrong reasons.
Rookie second-round pick WR Tre Harris took a firm stance and refused to report to training camp as he has yet to sign his contract.
Now, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, all other players have reported.
After their rookies reported Saturday, the remainder of the Chargers’ roster reports to training camp today. Chargers will be in camp in full by day’s end.
The Chargers play the Lions in the Pro Football Hall of Fame game in Canton, Ohio on Thursday, July 31st.

Harris’ situation could have a massive ripple effect around the league.
Only two second-round picks have signed their rookie contracts.
That all comes on the heels of the Houston Texans’ decision to give second-round WR Jayden Higgins a fully guaranteed contract, which isn’t the standard for second-round selections.
Harris, as well as all other second-round selections, are now demanding to have the same type of guarantee on their deals.
The Texans have now set a precedent, and that could change everything for the rest of the league.
Harris was the first player to take a strong stance about this, but he may not be the last.
And if the entire class of second-round selections decides to hold out, perhaps teams will have no choice but to cave.
This is an unprecedented situation, and one that will most likely be discussed extensively in next year’s league meetings.
As for the Chargers, they’re about to enter the second season of the Jim Harbaugh era, and they’re a legitimate dark horse contender to come out of the AFC.
Of course, having Harris there would be quite helpful to live up to that distinction, and that’s a situation we’ll have to keep following closely over the next days and weeks.
