Projecting DL Shemar Turner's potential signing bonus with the Chicago Bears

Texas A&M's 2025 draft class included three starting defensive linemen during the 2024 season hearing their names called during the first two days, led by edge Shemar Stewart being selected 17th overall by the Cincinnati Bengals , followed by fellow edge Nic Scourton (51st overall, Carolina Panthers ) and defensive lineman Shemar Turner (62nd overall, Chicago Bears ) going in the second round.

While Stewart and Scourton were expected to going in the first two rounds, Turner's recent surgery combined with his up and down play during the 2024 season led many draft analysts believing he would become a third or fourth round selection, but knowing Chicago's depth issues in the trenches, Turner's versatility, high motor, and and interior pass rusher prowess makes him an immediate contributor during his 2025 rookie campaign.

Contract wise, nothing is official, but according Spotrac , Turner's signing bonus is, of course, less that Nic Scourton or Shemar Stewart's, but is still financially health, especially at his position as a second round pick. Turner's contract is worth $7,215,450 with a potential signing bonus of $1,887,599. Likely signing the usual four-year deal, Turner will have the chance to prove his worth with the franchise before becoming a free agent.

During his four-year career in College Station, Turner recorded 101 tackles and ten sacks, while his six sacks during the 2023 season came during his time at defensive end, a position that he could still play due to his athletic build and elite hands.
