Carson Palmer will take a snap in a game for the first time since tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee last season, but it will be a brief appearance.
Arizona Cardinals Coach Bruce Arians said Wednesday that Palmer would play one series in Saturday night’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs “whether it lasts one play, three plays or 10 plays.”
Palmer said that his return was not of as much significance to him as the opportunity to showcase the Cardinals’ offense in front of the hometown fans.
“You’d like to kind of just take your time and methodically move the ball down the field and get a 10-, 12-play drive under your belt,” he said.
