Here's The Hot Take Everyone's Debating: Brendan Sorsby's Shocking Gambling Ban Could Cost the Cardinals Their 2027 First-Round Pick
Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby declared for the NFL supplemental draft after a gambling ban, and the Arizona Cardinals are reportedly interested.Summary
Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby declared for the NFL supplemental draft after being ruled ineligible for the 2026 college season due to gambling on sports, including his own teams. Sorsby initially sought an injunction to restore his eligibility but has since withdrawn his legal battle to pursue the NFL. The Arizona Cardinals, who are uncertain about their quarterback future, are reportedly interested in Sorsby. The supplemental draft operates differently from the regular draft, using a lottery system with three tiers based on team records. Teams must bid future draft picks to acquire players, with the highest bidder winning. If the Cardinals bid a first-round pick for Sorsby, they would lose their 2027 first-round selection. This would not be the first time the Cardinals used a high pick in the supplemental draft, as they selected quarterback Timm Rosenbach with a first-round pick in 1989.
