BREAKING: A judge in district court in Lubbock County, Texas, has granted the injunction requested by Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby, and he’s set to be ELIGIBLE for the 2026 season 🚨
Sorsby, 22, cannot play in Texas Tech’s first two games, which was the penalty his legal team suggested to the NCAA.
Texas Tech opens with Abilene Christian and then travels to Oregon State.
With the injunction in place, the NCAA cannot prevent Sorsby from “practicing, playing, or otherwise participating on Texas Tech’s football team for the 2026 season.”
In addition, Sorsby officially won’t be eligible to participate in the NFL’s Supplemental Draft this summer.
Sorsby successfully completed a 35-day inpatient rehabilitation program in Arizona for diagnosed gambling addiction and an anxiety disorder. His recovery plan involves ongoing outpatient clinical care, individual and group therapy, technological monitoring, and personal financial management.
