Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby has applied for entry into the NFL Supplemental Draft rather than stay with the Big 12 Conference team.
Multiple media outlets, including the NFL Network, reported the news on Monday night, June 15.
Sorsby was granted an injunction to remain eligible after the NCAA stripped him of the privilege because he admitted having a gambling addiction, which included betting on the Indiana team he was a member of.
On3 reported that Texas Tech and Sorsby had agreed to part ways.
The move comes after a busy day of activity across the country surrounding the Sorsby story, which began with the Big 12 Conference filing a lawsuit in federal court to contest Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s threats to pursue the conference should it try to sanction or punish Texas Tech for playing Sorsby.
