Brendan Sorsby's July 10 Pro Day Is Coming, and Two Head Coaches Just Told the League What They Really Think

Alright, 12s, listen up! There's some fresh, wild news bubbling up in the NFL that’s got coaches already sounding off. We're talking about Brendan Sorsby, a name you might not know yet, but he’s making moves that are anything but quiet. This guy is applying for the NFL supplemental draft, and get this, he’s already got a Pro Day tentatively penciled in for July 10! The whole situation is shaping up to be a real head-scratcher, and the early reactions from around the league are definitely a vibe.

The Supplemental Draft Drama Just Got Real

So, here's the deal: Word dropped Tuesday night that Sorsby was planning to declare for the supplemental draft. Now, he's taking the next step and setting up his Pro Day for July 10. You heard that right: July 10, at Carroll High School in Southlake, Texas. But it's not a done deal yet. Before his application can become official, which is expected in the next 24 hours, his lawyers have to withdraw a court filing against the NCAA. Once that happens, he'll be officially ineligible to play college ball. It’s a pretty intense path he's carving out for himself, trying to jump straight into the NFL this way.

Coaches Are Already Pumping the Brakes

Now, the big question hanging out there is what kind of interest Sorsby is actually gonna generate from the league's 32 teams. Right now, it’s completely unclear if anyone's champing at the bit for his services, even if he gets cleared for the supplemental draft. And we've already got some coaches making their feelings known. Browns head coach Todd Monken didn't mince words, calling Sorsby's situation a "slippery slope" and flat out saying he wouldn't be in favor of bringing him into Cleveland's quarterback room. Oof. And Jets head coach Aaron Glenn? When asked about Sorsby on Tuesday, he just kept it tight, telling reporters he's "focused on the guys that we have here now." That's a pretty clear signal, isn't it? It sounds like teams are taking a cautious approach, to say the least. For us here in the Emerald City, with Sam Darnold under center and weapons like Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and Cooper Kupp, our focus is always on our guys and what Head Coach Mike Macdonald and OC Brian Fleury are cooking up. But it’s always interesting to see the league-wide drama unfold. This Sorsby situation is definitely one to keep an eye on. Will any team take a chance on a player who’s already getting this kind of cold shoulder from other coaches? We'll all be watching on July 10 to see if he can impress any scouts. Go Hawks!
