The league told Sorsby in a letter obtained by ESPN: "Your Petition -- filed three business days before the deadline, without any supporting information or documentation, and only after abandoning your recent litigation efforts to avoid NCAA sanctions -- does not provide a basis for the League to alter those plans."

The league's letter to Sorsby said that the "sole reasons" he sought entry in his petition were he'd been declared ineligible.

"The Petition provides no information regarding the basis for, or timing of, the NCAA's decision," the letter states. "Public sources, however, indicate that in May 2026 the NCAA issued a determination declaring you permanently ineligible from participation in college athletics, based on a sustained pattern of improper gambling activity during your collegiate career at three different universities."

The letter, signed by Larry Ferazani, the general counsel of the NFL Management Council adds that his petition does not "demonstrate accountability for your conduct or indicate whether, or how, you would adhere to the League's rules and policies governing the integrity of competition.

"Instead, even after receiving notice of the NCAA's decision rescinding your college eligibility in May, you sought to avoid the consequences of that determination through litigation rather than accepting responsibility for your actions, and you pursued entry into the NFL only after abandoning those efforts."
