Former Patriots quarterback Matt Corral reemerges in the UFL

Short-time New England Patriots backup quarterback Matt Corral is back, at least in pro football. The 25-year-old, who abruptly left the Patriots in September after joining them through the waiver wire, will play for the Birmingham Stallions of the United Football League in the future.

UFL insider James Larsen was first to report Corral joining the team.

Following a standout career at Ole Miss, Corral entered the NFL as a third-round draft pick by the Carolina Panthers in 2022. However, he never found his footing with the organization and the following year and under new coaching staff was released last August.
