NFL nixes 2026 supplemental draft; Sorsby stuck

The NFL's decision to cancel the 2026 supplemental draft immediately impacts Brendan Sorsby's immediate NFL aspirations, leaving him without a direct avenue to join a team this season. This move is unusual, as supplemental drafts have historically provided a pathway for players not eligible for the main draft, with only 10 such drafts held since 1977. Teams and players will now need to monitor if Sorsby pursues alternative routes like the CFL or waits for the 2027 regular draft.
