Canadian Football League Won't Allow Brendan Sorsby to Play in 2026
The Canadian Football League announced on Friday that former Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby will not be allowed to join any of its teams for the upcoming season, according to ESPN. "Upholding the integrity of the league and ensuring fair competition are paramount to the CFL," the CFL said in a statement. "The allegations involving Brendan Sorsby are serious and concerning. At this time, the CFL will not register a contract for him, and no team will be permitted to add him to its negotiation list." Sorsby hadn't publicly expressed interest in joining the CFL, but his options are limited now that the NFL announced earlier this week that they would not hold a supplemental draft for him before the 2026 season. Sorsby admitted to placing thousands of bets on college and pro sports while playing at Indiana and Cincinnati. His attorney, Jeffrey Kessler, told ESPN that the NFL's decision not to hold a supplemental draft was a collective bargaining agreement violation and that they would pursue possible action with the Players Association. Sorsby's options are limited after he admitted to gambling, and he may have to sit out a year before entering the 2027 NFL draft.
