Cardinals reportedly fear torn ACL for Palmer

Whenever a player suffers a knee injury that looks bad, the team initially fears the worst. But it’s still worth noting when a team reportedly has those fears.
Per multiple reports, the Cardinals fear that quarterback Carson Palmer has suffered a torn ACL in his left knee. It’s the same left knee in which Palmer tore an ACL on a low hit in the first throw of the wild-card game to cap the 2005 season.
The injury comes two days after Palmer agreed to terms on a new three-year contract. If the ACL is torn, he won’t be playing again this year.
Drew Stanton, who was 2-1 as a starter when Palmer had a dead nerve in his throwing shoulder, would take over for the 8-1 Cardinals.
