Brendan Sorsby abre mão de oportunidades na NFL em 2026 para o Draft de 2027

O quarterback Brendan Sorsby decidiu não buscar nenhuma chance de jogar em 2026. Em vez disso, ele se preparará para o Draft da NFL de 2027 após um acordo com a liga.

Sorsby anunciou a decisão em um comunicado divulgado em 30 de junho. Ele assumiu total responsabilidade por seus problemas com apostas e afirmou estar focado em sua recuperação.

"Aceito 100% de responsabilidade pelas minhas ações", disse Sorsby. "Eu não tinha controle sobre meu problema com apostas, e precisei ser pego para perceber isso, mas foi verdadeiramente a melhor coisa que poderia ter acontecido comigo."

A NFL e a Associação de Jogadores da NFL chegaram a um acordo com Sorsby. O documento resolve as reivindicações sobre a negativa do Draft Suplementar e confirma que ele não enfrentará medidas disciplinares adicionais.

Nos termos do acordo, Sorsby pode participar de eventos pré-draft, como o Senior Bowl, o Pro Day e visitas a equipes antes do Draft de 2027.
