NFL Player News & League Decisions

The NFL has officially canceled its supplemental draft, a decision that leaves Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby without a clear path to the league this season. Sorsby, whose eligibility for the supplemental draft was uncertain following his entry into the transfer portal, now faces a potentially longer road to the NFL, with options including a return to college or awaiting the 2027 NFL Draft as outlined by league sources. The league's stance on Sorsby and sports wagering activities served as a stark warning to players about the potential consequences of such involvement.

In player contract news, the Atlanta Falcons and tight end Kyle Pitts have agreed to a three-year extension worth $54 million, with $36 million of that figure fully guaranteed. Meanwhile, Buffalo Bills legend Jim Kelly revealed he suffered a stroke earlier this spring and spent several days hospitalized, though he stated he is currently feeling "really good."

Stadium Upgrades & Off-Field Developments

The Buffalo Bills' new $2.1 billion stadium is set to debut with cutting-edge features, including a natural grass field, the world's largest stadium snow-melt system, and wind-reducing technology designed to enhance the fan and player experience. In less positive news, Jets quarterback Geno Smith is reportedly under police investigation following a battery accusation.

Elsewhere, singer Taylor Swift was spotted attending the Tight End University event, where her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, was also present amidst wedding speculation.
