Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby's path to the NFL hit another roadblock Tuesday after the league decided it will not hold a supplemental draft in 2026, effectively preventing the quarterback from joining an NFL team this season.

Not holding the 2026 NFL Supplemental Draft What we know: Sorsby announced last week that he planned to enter the supplemental draft amid an ongoing legal battle with the NCAA and Big 12 Conference over his eligibility following a gambling scandal.

According to multiple reports, the NFL declined Sorsby's request for a supplemental draft, citing concerns about completing a review of his gambling history before the start of the season.
