Brendan Sorsby Hit With More Devastating News After NFL Supplemental Draft Snub

Summary

Brendan Sorsby, a former college quarterback, cannot join the NFL in 2026 because there will be no supplemental draft and he is not eligible to sign as a free agent. The Canadian Football League (CFL) also blocked him from playing due to serious allegations related to betting while in college.

Key Facts

  • Brendan Sorsby lost his college eligibility after admitting to betting on a game involving Indiana.
  • The NFL will not hold a supplemental draft in 2024, so Sorsby cannot enter the league that way.
  • NFL rules require players to be available in a draft before signing as a free agent.
  • The CFL decided not to register a contract for Sorsby or allow teams to negotiate with him due to serious allegations.
  • Because of these restrictions, Sorsby cannot play in the NCAA, NFL, or CFL for now.
  • His only option may be the United Football League (UFL), a spring football league starting play in late March.
  • Playing in the UFL risks injury, which could affect his chances for the 2027 NFL draft.
  • If he cannot play competitively before then, it could hurt his future football career opportunities.
