Summary
Quarterback Brendan Sorsby's attempt to enter the NFL via the supplemental draft was blocked after the league announced it would not hold one this year. Sorsby's attorney Jeffrey Kessler argued the decision violated the Collective Bargaining Agreement and planned to pursue the matter through the NFL Players Association, but the union did not announce any plans to contest the ruling. Sorsby has decided not to challenge the decision further and will instead focus on his recovery and preparing for the 2027 NFL Draft.
