EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — And the only unsigned first-round draft pick is cornerback Prince Amukamara of the New York Giants.

The 19th pick overall in April’s draft, Amukamara became the last unsigned first rounder on Thursday when offensive tackle Nate Solder, the 17th pick, signed with New England Patriots.

Earlier in the day, defensive tackle Corey Liuget signed with the San Diego Chargers.

Giants general manager Jerry Reese said the only thing separating Amukamara from a contract on the first day of training camp was some language in the contract, but that has not been cleared up in almost a week.
