Joe Schad tweets thusly as we await Sam Bradford’s press conference in a couple hours:
I strongly expect Sooners QB Sam Bradford will announce season ending surgery but will wait on NFL decision
I’m going to assume that is based on some sort of insider info and not pure speculation, but we shall find out soon enough.
If Bradford does opt for surgery, it would seem likely that he’ll come back for his final season of eligibility in order to raise his draft stock, which will be at an all-time low this offseason. Especially considering he’d be unable to participate in this year’s NFL combine.
