Corral was waived by the Panthers on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 2022 third-round pick missed his entire rookie season while recovering from Lisfranc surgery, and by the time Corral recovered, the Panthers had already made a commitment to another young quarterback in 2023 first overall pick Bryce Young. It's possible that another team will take a chance on a healthy Corral's potential and scoop him up, but it's more likely that the former Ole Miss quarterback will have to settle for a practice-squad spot somewhere after clearing waivers.

Corral completed 15 of 22 passes for 126 yards and an interception in Saturday's 27-0 preseason loss to the Jets. He also was sacked four times and lost a fumble.

EDGE Analysis

Corral saw rookie No. 1 pick Bryce Young play Carolina's first three drives before he took over for the remainder of the game. After missing his entire rookie season with a foot injury, Corral committed a pair of turnovers while failing to lead the Panthers to any points. With veteran Andy Dalton slated to back up Young, Corral is striving to convince the team to keep a third quarterback ahead of the regular season.

Head coach Frank Reich said Corral (foot) participated in the opening installment of OTAs, Anthony Rizzuti of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

Corral was a third-round pick by the Panthers in 2022 but missed his entire rookie season after undergoing Lisfranc surgery in early September. Carolina signed Andy Dalton and traded up for No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young this offseason, so despite being healthy, Corral finds himself competing for a roster spot in Year 2.

Corral (foot) has gained weight since last year and will try to convince the Panthers to carry a third QB this season, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 2022 third-round pick missed his entire rookie season after having Lisfranc surgery in early September. He then saw the Panthers sign Andy Dalton and trade up for Bryce Young at No. 1 overall, leaving Corral and Jacob Eason to duke it out for the possibility of a No. 3 QB job. Coach Frank Reich said in early March that he wasn't sure about Corral's availability for OTAs, so it's possible the second-year QB doesn't practice until training camp.

Corral may miss the start of OTAs as he recovers from surgery on his Lisfranc.

EDGE Analysis

Corral missed the entirety of his rookie season, and now he might not be ready for the start of OTAs either. While this is a reasonable timetable given the injury, there was originally hope the 2022 third-round pick could be recovered in time for the start of the season. Corral could have an opportunity to compete for the starting job this offseason, so it remains to be seen how this injury will impact him, as Carolina might look to draft a rookie or sign a veteran to compete with him.

Corral (foot) is no longer in a walking boot as he continues to recover from his September surgery, ESPN's David Newton reports.

EDGE Analysis

Corral will still miss the 2022 season, but his current progress from the Lisfranc injury he suffered during the preseason could set him up for a relatively healthy offseason. As someone the Panthers traded up to select in the third round of this year's draft, Corral represents a significant long-term piece for the franchise, which presently carries quarterbacks Baker Mayfield (ankle), Sam Darnold (ankle) and PJ Walker all on expiring contracts. Although a first-round quarterback selection is certainly a possibility next spring as the team sits with a 1-5 record at the moment, Corral at least offers an investment to carry over at the position.

Corral underwent successful surgery on his left foot and returned to the Panthers' team facility Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Corral will still likely miss the entire 2022 campaign after being placed on injured reserve, but it's an encouraging sign to see him in good spirits following surgery. The rookie third-round pick faces a lengthly rehab after Lisfranc surgery but is expected to be healthy by next year's training camp. With Sam Darnold (ankle) and Baker Mayfield both set for free agency this offseason, it's possible Corral, if healthy, steps into a starter's role in 2023, though Carolina will likely bring in competition via the daft or free agency.

Corral (foot) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, ruling him out for the 2022 season, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Players placed on IR before the end of the preseason aren't eligible to return. Corral struggled in two exhibition appearances before suffering a Lisfranc injury, and he likely would've been a gameday inactive to start his career if he'd stayed healthy. The rookie third-round pick faces a lengthy rehab after Lisfranc surgery, but the Panthers won't need to rush him back and presumably will have other options at quarterback next year, be it Baker Mayfield, a rookie or a new veteran. The 23-year-old Corral gets a redshirt year and can only hope for a shot to compete for the top spot next offseason.

Corral is getting a second opinion on his Lisfranc injury, before the decision on whether or not he'll need surgery will be made Tuesday, according to head coach Matt Rhule, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Corral suffered the injury in the fourth quarter of the Panthers' preseason loss to the Patriots on Friday. The rookie third-round selection has struggled so far but was expected to be the team's No. 3 option behind Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold. However, Corral may end up spending his rookie season on IR, clearing the way for P.J. Walker to earn a roster spot.

Corral has a Lisfranc injury in his left foot, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Newton suggests it could be a season-ending injury after coach Matt Rhule used the term "significant." Corral, a rookie third-round pick, was expected to be the Panthers' No. 3 QB before he hurt his foot during Friday's preseason loss to New England. He struggled in his two appearances this preseason, completing 10 of 24 passes for 69 yards. P.J. Walker now has a much better shot to stick with the Panthers behind Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold.
