Overview
- Sorsby, who filed paperwork Tuesday, has withdrawn his lawsuit against the NCAA and will be ineligible to play college football this season as he pursues the NFL supplemental draft.
- Court filings and reporting show he admitted to thousands of wagers totaling about $90,000 over several years, including dozens of bets on his own teams, and he completed a residential treatment program for gambling disorder.
- He has scheduled a private pro day for July 10 in Southlake, Texas, where NFL scouts will see him throw and conduct intensive background meetings ahead of the supplemental draft process.
- The supplemental draft uses a weighted, three‑tier lottery and blind bids of future picks so the team awarded Sorsby would forfeit the corresponding 2027 pick, and most evaluators project his value in the Day 2–Day 3 range despite some teams grading him higher.
- The NFL’s approach to discipline remains unclear so teams are doing extra due diligence now, and the case is driving wider debate over college gambling rules, NIL oversight, team roster planning, and potential policy reform.
