Brendan Sorsby’s union gap: NCAA’s amateurism vs. NFLPA’s paywall
The Arkansas QB is legally unprotected in the transfer portal and pre-draft limbo—until the NFLPA flips the switch on his contract.
Brendan Sorsby is playing quarterback for Arkansas without a union shield. NBC Sports confirms the fifth-year senior enters the transfer portal and pre-draft process legally unprotected by the NFL Players Association. The NFLPA’s labor safeguards only activate once Sorsby signs an NFL contract or is drafted, leaving him—and every athlete in his position—exposed to risks the union was built to mitigate.
