“Matt Corral tore his lisfranc ligament. I’m sure it’s going to be a significant injury.“ Matt Corral Has a ‘Significant’ Lisfranc Injury

You may have heard of a Lisfranc injury, but odds are you don't know exactly what it means. We've got you covered.

Essentially, the five long bones that make up your foot — the metatarsals, if we feel like being fancy — are held together by what is called the Lisfranc joint complex, named after 19th-century French army surgeon Jacques Lisfranc de St. Tearing one of them is no bueno and can keep you out of action for a lengthy period of time. A broken finger or sprained ankle is an easy enough concept to grasp, and the alphabet soup that is the ACL, MCL, PCL and LCL can be understood basically as the ligaments that keep your knee from bending in an unholy fashion.

Corral was selected in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Ole Miss.
