Steelers would need to pay hefty price for polarizing QB Brendan Sorsby - Behind the Steel Curtain

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback room is already full as is. With four signal-callers currently on the roster, adding a fifth before training camp would be a shock, to say the least. However, there is a rare case in which a first-round talent is available in the supplemental draft. Former Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby’s appeal to have his eligibility reinstated has been denied by the NCAA. This comes after Sorsby was found to have gambled on his own team while at Indiana. And while he won’t be playing college football in 2026, there is a change Sorsby finds himself on an NFL roster, though he won’t come cheap. Per Tony Pauline, should a team take Sorsby in the supplemental draft, it could cost a first or second round pick in the 2027 NFL Draft. “Multiple sources inside the league tell me if QB Brendan Sorsby of Texas Tech is unable to regain eligibility for the ‘26 college season & forced to enter a supplemental draft, he will be a late 1st/early

2nd round pick depending on the order,” Pauline writes. “Presently Sorsby is graded higher than Arch Manning by several area scouts as we head towards the season.” Should the Steelers take the leap and use a pick on Sorsby, they would basically be saying he is the quarterback they are betting on for the future, and it would mean that both Will Howard and Mason Rudolph would be out the door. Sorsby threw 27 touchdowns to five interceptions and led the Big 12 with a passer rating of 155.5 in 2025.
