Knee - MCL
September 16, 2025
The Panthers placed Corbett (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Corbett suffered an MCL injury to his left knee during the Panthers' Week 2 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday. He'll be required to miss at least the next four games, though head coach Dave Canales said Monday that Corbett would be sidelined for longer -- perhaps the entire season -- were he to undergo surgery, per Gantt. Cade Mays will likely take over as the Panthers' starting center while Corbett is sidelined.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
2021
Corbett appeared in just four regular-season games in 2023 due to ACL and MCL issues, but he's expected to be ready for the start the Panthers' 2024 campaign. With Carolina spending big on a pair of free-agent guards this past offseason, Corbett is making a positional change. He's expected to start at center for the first time in his career ahead of the coming season.
Corbett started all 17 games but tore his ACL in Week 18 of last season, which will likely sideline him to begin the 2023 campaign. While he's out, Justin McCray and Michael Jordan figure to provide alternatives at right guard.
Corbett started all 17 games for the Super Bowl-Champion Rams last season. He then inked a three-year, $29.25 million contract with the Panthers this offseason, setting him up for a starting guard role ahead of the 2022 campaign.
A 16-game starter at right guard in 2020, Corbett shifted to center during spring minicamps and appears to be the leading candidate to start at the position after fellow center Brian Allen ran with the second offense. The Rams offensive line is looking to deploy a schematic shift favoring Corbett's powerful base, and he's coming off an excellent season. If he doesn't stick at center, Corbett would likely return to starting at right guard.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Re-works deal with Panthers
CCarolina Panthers
February 26, 2023
Corbett agreed to a restructured contract Friday, which cleared up $5.79 million in cap space for the Panthers by converting $7.72 million of his base salary into a bonus, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Corbett's restructured deal signifies that the Panthers have no plans to move on from the 27-year-old offensive lineman, who started all 17 games for the team in 2022 before tearing his ACL in the season finale. Once healthy, Corbett will likely reclaim his role as Carolina's starting right guard.
