How Texas Tech’s Brendan Sorsby Could Cash In Big as NFL Gambling Booms
Sorsby has been seen as a potentialy first round pick in the 2027 NFL Draft. If he is banned by the NCAA, Sorsby can apply to be in the supplemental draft, which would happen before training camp opens. A team could then select Sorsby, forfeiting the same round pick in the 2027 NFL Draft. A player has not been selected in the supplemental draft since 2019, when the Arizona Cardinals selected Jalen Thompson, after he was ruled ineligible by the NCAA.
Still, the gambling aspect does put a wrinkle in things. In 2011, when Terrell Pyror decided to go to the supplemental draft after being suspended for five games for selling memorabilia, the NFL held that suspension. Then, in 2023, the NFL suspended ten players for sports betting.
