Sorsby’s Lawyers to Withdraw Texas Filing, Making Him Ineligible Again Before Supplemental Draft Application
Sorsby’s representatives plan to file for the supplemental draft within 24 hours after the Texas court action is completed.
ESPNBrendan Sorsby’s lawyers will withdraw a court filing in Texas today, restoring his eligibility status for professional football. Ron Slavin of Lift Management, Sorsby’s agent, outlined the sequence of steps. The withdrawal will render Sorsby ineligible again under current rules.
Once the Texas filing is formally withdrawn, Sorsby’s representatives will submit an application for the NFL Supplemental Draft. The application is expected within the next 24 hours after the court action is completed. Slavin confirmed the timeline in a statement to @PeteThamel.
The sequence reverses an earlier legal step taken in Texas that had affected Sorsby’s draft eligibility. No other court filings or jurisdictions were referenced in the account provided by the agent.
