ORIGINAL REPORT:
Rather than opting out of the Sugar Bowl and beginning his preparations for the 2022 NFL Draft, Ole Miss quarterback Matt Corral made the decision to stick with his teammates for their matchup vs. Baylor.
Unfortunately for Corral, who is one of the top draft-eligible QB prospects in the nation, he suffered what could be a serious injury during Saturday's Sugar Bowl.
Here is the play where Corral was injured. He was eventually carted off with a leg injury.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Corral for a speedy recovery.
Matt Corral is down on the field after this play
🙏 for QB1
