MATT CORRAL PICKED UP OFF WAIVERS BY....... - PantherFan007 - 08-31-2023

..... The New England Patriots, who, ironically, the Panthers traded up with in 2022 to DRAFT Matt Corral in the first place. Sheeshh...

Panthers QB Matt Corral Picked Up Off Waivers (msn.com)

The Carolina Panthers are officially down to two quarterbacks as Matt Corral was claimed off waivers Thursday afternoon by the New England Patriots.

Panthers GM Scott Fitterer told reporters earlier today that if Corral cleared waivers the plan would be to sign him back on to the practice squad.

"It was a tough decision. I like Matt as a person," Fitterer stated. "Anytime you have a guy that you take and you bring in, you're developing, you see progress it's tough but you're just trying to keep your best 53."

Head coach Frank Reich also made it clear that he would like to have Corral back in the building if he cleared during his press conference on Wednesday.

"We're happy with the progress that Matt made. As we've talked about really the whole offseason, there's a lot of complexities, a lot of moving parts to putting together a roster. Everybody understands that the sole motivation is to do what's best for the team. We're trying to get as many players on the roster and in that locker room on the 53 and on the practice squad as we can that can help us win this year. Those are tough decisions. I wouldn't mind saying I would love to get Matt back. He's done very well. We'd like to see him continue to progress."

Ironically, New England was the team Carolina made a trade with in the 2022 NFL Draft to move up in the third round to select Corral.

I couldn't help thinking there was a bit of chuckling going on behind the scenes lol. Not because of Matt Corral being all that great of a catch, but of how the Patriots ended up with him.

No joke, when I saw that they cut all QBs besides Jones, I thought “that’s where Corral will end up”. And then Corral was cut

Wish Matt the best…shrewd dealers up in our north east but you have to give credit where credit is due. Now I think this decision on Matt will never materialize, it was a shrewd move on their part. Hey there is always PJ Walker…just kidding guys, just kidding.
