Who Should I Start? Matt Corral or Brock Purdy

Wednesday, September 20, 11:45 AM

The New England Patriots have signed quarterback Matt Corral to their practice squad, according to beat writer Doug Kyed. Corral was with the Carolina Panthers during the preseason but was released on August 31 before signing with the Pats. New England then waived Corral on September 9 but he ended up clearing waivers, so he's back with the team. Bailey Zappe is the primary backup to Mac Jones while Corral and rookie Malik Cunningham are emergency/practice squad options for New England.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy's best efforts failed to bring the team's first championship in 29 years in Sunday's Super Bowl matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. As the Chiefs sealed the second overtime victory in Super Bowl history, Purdy's night ended at 23 completions of 38 attempts for 255 yards, one touchdown, and no interceptions against a tough pass defense. It's hard to say that Purdy had a bad game, but it may be tough to shake his "game manager" tag after this one. He kept his team in the game throughout and led an overtime drive to a field goal, but there were times when his inexperience showed, standing in contrast to Patrick Mahomes' clean game-winning touchdown drive in response. Purdy will look to get his team back for another shot and will most likely be on the QB1/QB2 border this fall in fantasy drafts.
