A display panel and a display device are provided. The display panel includes a display area configured to display an image and a dummy pixel area disposed outside of the display area. The dummy pixel area has a plurality of dummy pixels disposed therein. Each dummy pixel includes a pixel protection unit. The dummy pixels are defined by crisscrossing data metal lines and gate metal lines in a vertical direction and a horizontal direction, respectively. A pattern of a projection of a semiconductor layer on the horizontal plane intersects the corresponding data metal line, is separated from the corresponding gate metal line, and is disposed toward a center of each dummy pixel, to prevent the display device from poor display due to contact between the semiconductor layer and the gate metal lines in the dummy pixel area when electrostatic discharge occurs.
