Not again.
Those two words must've run through the head of Carolina Panthers center Austin Corbett on Sunday.
Corbett has a brutal injury history, and he didn't make it through Week 2 without the injury bug rearing its ugly head again.
"Panthers center Austin Corbett tore his left ACL in the final game of the 2022, tore his left MCL in 2023 and had biceps surgery last year," writes ESPN's David Newton. "Now he faces possibly yet another surgery on his left knee after a fourth-quarter injury Sunday. 'Football sucks, but I love this game so much,' said Corbett, who was seen crying as he leaned against a wall outside the locker room."

Corbett was originally a second-round pick of the Browns in 2018 out of Nevada.
He spent less than two seasons in Cleveland before being moved to the Rams, where he won a Super Bowl.
Corbett first joined the Panthers in 2022.
He made it to the final game of that season before the torn ACL.
Corbett made it back for four games in 2023 only to tear his MCL.
He was limited to five games in 2024 and had the biceps injury.
And now this.

Corbett, 30, is clearly resilient. He keeps coming back for more.
The game he loves hasn't rewarded him with ideal health, but Panthers fans will be hoping that this time isn't as serious as it seems.
