Patriots claim former Panthers QB Matt Corral

The New England Patriots on Thursday claimed former Carolina Panthers quarterback Matt Corral, giving New England a second quarterback behind starter Mac Jones on the 53-man roster.

Corral felt Tuesday that he had made Carolina's 53-man roster, saying he couldn't wait to get in the quarterback room with Bryce Young, the top pick of the 2023 draft, and veteran Andy Dalton. But the 2022 third-round pick out of Ole Miss was released Wednesday.

The Patriots re-signed second-year quarterback Bailey Zappe and undrafted rookie free agent quarterback Malik Cunningham to the team's practice squad Wednesday after both were waived Tuesday.
