Or they just liked Corral in that draft and wanted a look. Have looked and decided they are better sticking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffblue Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 (edited) Seems Corral just decided not to show up for work with the Patriots. This should probably close the book on his illustrious career https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.boston.com/sports/new-england-patriots/2023/09/09/patriots-matt-corral-placed-on-exempt-left-squad-list-nfl-rumors-analysis/%3famp=1 Edited September 10, 2023 by buffblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corral has elite arm talent and he is also incredibly mobile. If anything at all happens to Josh’s Allen we are sunk. Corral might make things interesting. how do we know he tried to get Lance? Genuinely curious! Good news if true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo716 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 People thinking Matt Corral Will keep Us afloat if Josh goes down LOL Him and Lance wouldn't do anything They're developmental three guys at this point not a backup 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 wonder if he failed to show up, or if NE is olaying games trying to keep him and the other guy “This designation means Corral is no longer a member of the Patriots’ 53-man roster. However, being placed on this list also means another team cannot claim the 24-year-old off waivers, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nextmanup Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 On 8/30/2023 at 4:09 PM, UmbrellaMan said: The Bills need a talent infusion at backup QB, and Corral is far more talented than the players currently on the roster. He was Chris Simm’s #1 QB in the draft last year, but more importantly, his dual threat ability would be a revelation for a QB learning and developing under Josh Allen. He would be an amazing scout team QB if nothing else. Put a claim in Buffalo! Beane, get 'er done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Corral has publicly discussed depression issues in the past.

Zappe was elevated because Corral doesn't count towards the roster while gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
