Projected as a high pick, Corral only played in the Sugar Bowl because he’s so competitive, and it’s killing him not to participate here. But it was high ankle sprain with a 6- to 8-week recovery. I’m told he’s ahead of schedule — just not enough time to prepare to work out here.

Mississippi quarterback Matt Corral will not take part in throwing drills at the 2022 NFL Scouting Combine, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
Corral suffered an ankle injury in the Sugar Bowl, and is still working his way back to 100 percent. He hopes to be at full strength and ready to throw at the Rebels’ pro day workout on March 23rd, Pelissero says.
One of the top quarterback prospects in the 2022 NFL draft, Corral is expected to be a first-round pick, especially if that pro day workout is impressive.
