Matt Corral Pro Day Attended by Steelers, Panthers Ahead of 2022 NFL Draft

Matt Corral had the chance to win over some skeptics at the Ole Miss pro day on Wednesday.

This may be the most anticipated quarterback pro day of this year's draft cycle, according to the NFL Network. The showcase was the first real look at Corral since he suffered an ankle injury in the Sugar Bowl.

At @OleMissFB where Matt Corral (@corral_matt) will get HIS moment in front of all QB-needy teams to prove he’s the GUY.<br><br>Plan is a 64-throw script with plenty rollouts/movement to show he’s healthy. A lot of anticipation. Nuggets on key team figures &amp; Corral in @nflnetwork hit: pic.twitter.com/BYwk4TKSuJ

The Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers and Pittsburgh Steelers are all possible landing spots for Corral, given their need for a long-term answer at quarterback. The head coaches and general managers were at the pro day.

The presence of Mike Tomlin and Kevin Colbert was noted by Andrew Fillipponi of 93.7 The Fan.

HUGE Steelers NFL draft development: They went to Matt Corral's Pro Day over Ohio State Pro Day. Colbert and Tomlin are fixtures at Ohio St. They draft a Buckeye every year. They want a QB at 20. It's becoming the worst kept secret in pro football.

Matt Rhule had a good look at Corral during his throwing session.

One of the obvious questions was answered as the quarterback moved well and didn't seem to be dealing with any issues related to his ankle injury.

The time to throw in the pros is so short that it can be hard to adjust from college to the pros. If the team selects Corral, he shouldn't have to worry about whether he can get rid of the ball.

It was a productive day for Corral.

Corral looks solid right now at his pro day. Ankle looks great. Showing some serious pace on the ball on the intermediate throws.

Matt Corral looking sharp at his pro day. His ankle looks 100 percent. I think it’s been out of sight, out of mind during the draft process with him because of the injury, but the tape/growth/skill set against the SEC makes him my No. 1 QB in this class.

The California native is the fourth-best quarterback on Bleacher Report's big board, and he was compared to Baltimore Ravens backup Tyler Huntley.

There is only so much a prospect can do to improve his draft stock. Corral will not jump into the top five on the basis of what he did Wednesday.

His pro day likely made him a late Day 1 or early Day 2 selection.
