Carolina Panthers rookie quarterback Matt Corral has a Lisfranc injury that likely will end his season, coach Matt Rhule said Saturday.
Corral had a walking boot on his left foot after Friday night’s preseason contest against the New England Patriots in Foxborough, Mass.
He alternated quarters with third-string signal-caller PJ Walker before getting his foot stepped on in the fourth quarter. He went to the locker room for X-rays.
A third-round draft pick out of Ole Miss, Corral completed 9 of 15 passes for 58 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions before exiting the 20-10 loss with the injury.
The Panthers sat quarterbacks Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold against the Patriots. Rhule still has not named his starter for the Sept. 11 season opener against the visiting Cleveland Browns.
