The next stop on the Carolina Panthers’ Great Quarterback Adventure of 2022 came on Wednesday, as the crew hit Oxford, Miss. - And the subject of said trip? None other than Matt Corral, of course. - General manager Scott Fitterer and head coach Matt Rhule were among those present at the Ole Miss pro day, where the 23-year-old passer showcased his arm for NFL onlookers. He, just like Kenny Pickett and Malik Willis before him, had a pretty smooth go at doing so, too. - - Panthers coach Matt Rhule is as close to Ole Miss QB Matt Corral as he was to Liberty’s Malik Willis on Tuesday. #PhotooffNFLNetwork. pic.twitter.com/wmhG6JEHIV - — David Newton (@DNewtonespn) March 23, 2022 - - - - Matt Corral with the corner route. #HottyToddy pic.twitter.com/mZWzPoFQML - — The Rebel Walk (@TheRebelWalk) March 23, 2022 - - - - Matt Corral going deep pic.twitter.com/4ZVKHrwTFE - — Michael Katz (@MichaelLKatz) March 23, 2022 - - - The 6-foot-2, 212-pounder didn’t end his 2021 campaign on a high note, having sustained an ankle injury during the Sugar Bowl on Jan. 1. But he did turn heads on the way there—passing for 3,349 yards and 20 touchdowns while rushing for another 614 yards and 11 scores. - If Pickett and Willis are considered “Tier 1” quarterback prospects of the class, then Corral is widely perceived to be in the bunch right below. And while there remains skepticism about his build and durability at the next level—the Ole Miss product has a bit of an “it factor” to him given his big arm, mobility and competitiveness. - - RelatedWith Panthers watching on, Liberty QB Malik Willis crushes pro dayPanthers ask QB Kenny Pickett to palm football at Pitt pro day - - List - - NFL Wire Network mock draft: QB moves shake up projections - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Panthers Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Panthers Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
