Jets Unlikely to Spend More Than a Late-Round Pick on QB Brendan Sorsby

Summary
A late-round flier is the most the Jets are expected to consider for Brendan Sorsby in the supplemental draft, with the team unlikely to bid aggressively despite its long-running quarterback need.
Sources cited by the New York Post and ESPN say New York wants to avoid the baggage around Sorsby — including his legal situation, reported addiction issues and the media attention that would follow.
Aaron Glenn has already tried to shut down quarterback drama by installing Geno Smith as the starter after his trade from the Raiders, while fourth-round rookie Cade Klubnik is the in-house developmental option.
That approach points to 2027 as the Jets' likelier window for a bigger quarterback move, prioritizing short-term stability over the risk attached to Sorsby.
