Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby is reported to be entering the NFL’s supplemental draft after parting ways with the program, ending his college career. Multiple outlets describe his decision as a shift from the possibility of returning for the 2026 season following recent legal activity that granted him eligibility. Despite that eligibility, reporting indicates Sorsby instead plans to pursue the next stage of his career through the supplemental draft, a process that allows NFL teams to select players whose rights must be secured outside the regular college-entry window.
Several sources frame the move as the likely resolution to a prolonged situation involving his status at Texas Tech, including court actions and related eligibility developments. Fox Sports and Yahoo Sports reports align that the declaration is underway and that Sorsby will go to the highest-bidding team, which would determine his destination in the league based on supplemental-draft rules. At least one report also links Sorsby to interest from the Cleveland Browns, while others focus on the procedural meaning of the supplemental draft and what his declaration represents for Texas Tech and Sorsby’s immediate future.
