Overview
- The NCAA found Sorsby placed roughly 9,000 bets totaling about $90,000 while in college and ruled him ineligible after discovering wagers that included his own team.
- A Texas judge briefly restored his eligibility but the Big 12 filed a federal suit against Texas Tech that remains active and unresolved.
- Sorsby withdrew his court challenge, left Texas Tech, and filed for the 2026 NFL Supplemental Draft, ending the campus fight but not the conference litigation.
- The NFL is reviewing his supplemental‑draft eligibility with Commissioner Roger Goodell reported to be involved and most teams expected to evaluate him at a July 10 pro day.
- Scouts grade Sorsby as a high‑upside Day‑2 prospect yet note technical flaws, temperament and injury risks and warn he could face a league suspension that would affect availability and team draft capital because any supplemental pick costs the equivalent pick in the following regular draft.
