Carson Palmer’s future is murky, as he was considering whether he’d play in 2018 even before going down for the season with a broken arm. The Cardinals may need something of a bridge quarterback, and are apparently satisfied with Gabbert’s contributions both on the field and behind the scenes. There appears to be a real desire to keep him around for at least another season — for better or worse.
