We’re first prioritizing landing spots where Sorsby would face no pressure to see the field anytime soon. The Dallas Cowboys have already demonstrated they are willing to take gambles on young quarterbacks with enticing physical tools (Trey Lance and Joe Milton); Sorsby is a more enticing prospect than either of them when they were acquired. This would also be a return home for the 23-year-old quarterback, who starred at Lake Dallas High School in Denton, Texas. Sorsby would have the opportunity to learn from Dak Prescott for two-plus years before potentially taking over as the Cowboys starting quarterback in 2028. It might cost Jerry Jones sacrificing a Day 2 pick, but he’s made more aggressive moves with draft capital before for worse players.

While Brendan Sorsby has played in 34 career collegiate games, he really wasn’t viewed as a prominent quarterback prospect for the NFL until this past year. Now that he’s dealing with the gambling scandal, there’s too much risk to thrust him into a starting role so quickly. However, the worst NFL teams are willing to take more chances. Fortunately, the Miami Dolphins already have a starting quarterback they are financially committed to for 2026. Malik Willis’ contract should ensure that he remains the Dolphins’ starter, allowing the coaching staff to use this season as a development year for Sorsby. If he makes a strong impression and demonstrates that he is ready to be elevated into being the starter, Miami could potentially have a top-three pick to use on wide receiver Jeremiah Smith.

New York Jets

If Brendan Sorsby is going to cost a second-round pick in the NFL’s supplemental draft, then the New York Jets stand out as a potential option. They already have three first-round picks in the 2027 NFL Draft, so that Round 2 selection already stands out as a potential trade chip. Many will presume that Sorsby could challenge to be the Jets’ starting quarterback pretty quickly, but the coaching staff is very committed to Geno Smith. A better plan would be to give Smith the first three months of the season before Sorsby gets a trial run as the starter in December. If he performs really well, New York can use its trio of firsts on building a core around him. If he struggles, just take Arch Manning or Dante Moore.
