Texas Tech QB Shake-Up | Texas Tech Red Raiders Football News

Texas Tech’s quarterback future just flipped on its head: Brendan Sorsby, once thought to be the starter, is out after a gambling scandal, paving the way for redshirt sophomore Will Hammond to take over. Hammond, with 1100+ passing yards and 16 TDs in 12 games, beat out Lloyd Jones and Kirk Francis for the starting job. He’ll debut against ACU on Sept. 5. Sorsby’s pro dreams are on hold—NFL denied him supplemental draft entry, and other leagues won’t let him play this season—but he’s still eligible for the 2027 draft. Football’s wild ride continues.
