Bruce Arians is making it sound like it will be difficult for Carson Palmer to play in the Arizona Cardinals’ Week 5 game on Thursday at San Francisco.
Palmer left Sunday’s game for the Cardinals against the St. Louis Rams in the fourth quarter after hitting his head against the turf at University of Phoenix Stadium following a sack.
Palmer is in concussion protocol, and Arians was making it sound like it would be difficult for the quarterback to suit up against the 49ers in four days.
Arians says Palmer probably won't be easy to play Thursday night Vs 49ers

#AZCardinals coach Bruce Arians said Carson Palmer is in the concussion protocol & they'll be "very, very careful." Thursday sounds unlikely

Drew Stanton is the team’s second-string QB. Stanton was just 4-of-11 for 37 yards and two interceptions after taking Palmer’s place in the 17-13 loss to the Rams.
