Bruce Arians not concerned about Carson Palmer’s hamstring
Carson Palmer exited the Arizona Cardinals’ 28-3 win over the New York Jets on Monday night with a hamstring strain, but it sounds like the injury is not serious.
After the win, Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians said of Palmer’s hamstring, “I don’t think it’s that severe.”
Arians says Palmer's hamstring doesn't appear serious. Waiting on Jaron Brown knee. Doesn't look that bad

Palmer went 23 of 34 for 213 yards and a touchdown. He did not return after throwing the TD pass in the fourth quarter. When Palmer left the game, the Cardinals termed him “questionable” to return.
Palmer similarly downplayed the extent of his hamstring injury.
Palmer called his hamstring a cramping issue. No big deal

Palmer was playing in his first game since missing Week 5’s game following a concussion sustained in a Week 4 loss to the Rams. He’s passed for seven touchdowns against five interceptions this season.
