I took it as his opinion that he thinks the player is lying. Sorsby could have an actual addiction or it could be spin. None of us know for sure and I could see either way. There are many people who don't believe the agent though.ASUFan4863 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 22, 2026 11:09 amI disagree with you saying “I can’t fathom why any team would take him”. If he’s deemed talented enough, multiple teams will submit picks to take him.Bigdaddyg1 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 22, 2026 10:27 amLet me first say that I avoid tit for tat arguments with anyone on these topics. I’m not sure exactly what you disagree with? This guy is a quarterback who will touch the ball way more than most anyone on the field during a game. To think that he’s done gambling is probably a stretch. While I never thought games are fixed it’s way too easy for a quarterback to let his game slip away without being too obvious. If I’m a coach or owner just the notion of my quarterback being involved with a fix is too much.ASUFan4863 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 21, 2026 9:28 amDisagree. First, Gambling is a huge issue with young men in today’s society and it should not be downplayed. Second, this has happened before in the NFL with Calvin Ridley and others. If you are talented enough, the NFL will forgive you. I believe Sorsby will fall into that category.Bigdaddyg1 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 21, 2026 9:05 amI’m not naive and pro football is first and foremost a business and there are always questionable roster moves. As far as this guy goes I can’t fathom why any team would take him. No matter how his people spin his “addiction” or his supposed recovery, if he plays every bad pass or fumble will take on an added layer of scrutiny.
I also disagree with you placing addiction in quotes and referring to that as a spin by his people, alluding to it not being a true addiction. Gambling is the fastest growing addiction in young men.
I'm with you that if he is viewed as talented enough someone will take him but the gambling thing is enough reason that several owners won't care and will say no to bringing him in. I could see someone taking him though. I would not be surprised if up to 6-8 teams put in a bid but I would also not be shocked if just 1-2 or none do. I will find it very interesting to see who makes an offer if he goes undrafted.
