The NFL has decided not to hold a supplemental draft this year, informing quarterback Brendan Sorsby of its decision in a letter. Sorsby had applied for the supplemental draft after being declared ineligible by the NCAA for making thousands of bets on sporting events during his college career.
NCAA Ineligibility
Sorsby’s NCAA ineligibility stemmed from a sustained pattern of improper gambling activity during his collegiate career at three different universities. The NCAA issued a determination declaring him permanently ineligible from participation in college athletics in May 2026.
The NFL encouraged Sorsby to focus on preparing for possible entry into the league through the regular draft next year. The league’s decision was based on the fact that it had not conducted a supplemental draft for several years and had no plans to do so this year.
