The Pittsburgh Steelers are considering Brendan Sorsby as a potential quarterback addition via the NFL supplemental draft. Sorsby has applied for the supplemental draft, with the application deadline set for June 22. The NFL supplemental draft is scheduled for late July, and teams have a window from July 5–12 to hold private workouts or ProDays.

Sorsby won a temporary injunction preserving his college eligibility for 2026, but his eligibility status remains contested. According to triblive.com, Sorsby’s attorneys plan to withdraw their lawsuit, which would make him officially ineligible under the NCAA’s ruling. The Big 12 filed a lawsuit in Dallas federal court seeking a ruling that it can sanction Texas Tech if Sorsby plays in 2026. According to triblive.com, other NCAA schools have said they would stop scheduling Texas Tech.

Accounts differ regarding Sorsby’s betting activity. One account states he admitted to placing over $90,000 in bets over four years, including 40 on his own team. Another account alleges he placed over 10,000 bets during his collegiate career. The latter claim is reported by atozsports.com.

The Steelers have an opportunity to acquire Brendan Sorsby via the supplemental draft if they grade him as a first-round talent.
