Quarterback Brendan Sorsby is applying to enter the NFL’s supplemental draft, which means teams will have to mull whether or not they’ll make a bid for his services if the league approves that application.
Jets head coach Aaron Glenn didn’t offer much of a hint about where his team will fall on that question during a press conference on Tuesday. Glenn said that his mind is on the quarterbacks that are in attendance in the team’s minicamp this week — Geno Smith, Cade Klubnik, Brady Cook, and Bailey Zappe — and that any conversation with General Manager Darren Mougey will come later.
“I’m focused on the guys that we have here now,” Glenn said. “I’m sure that’s something me and Moug will talk about. I got the quarterbacks here that we focus on right now.”
Glenn also declined to say how Sorsby’s history of gambling on his own team would impact their evaluation of Sorsby as a prospective addition to the team.
“I have no idea what that is to be honest with you,” Glenn said. “I heard about it, I’ve seen it on TV, but I don’t want to respond to that because I have no idea of the inner workings of that. Not fair to that player for me to do that.”
Along with deciding whether Sorsby’s talent is great enough to give up a 2027 draft pick to select him in the supplemental draft, any evaluation of the quarterback will have to include the possibility that he will be suspended by the NFL as he moves into the professional ranks.
