Arizona Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer will miss the rest of the National Football League season after suffering a torn ACL during Sunday's game against the St. Louis Rams, the team said on Monday.


In an ironically fortuitous turn of events for Palmer, the thing that will probably save his career is the HUGE [smiley=greedy.gif] three-year contract he just signed "in the nick of time" at the end of last week.

Chris Johnson's Comeback Player of the Year campaign has hit a snag. Johnson was diagnosed with a fractured tibia after leaving Sunday's victory in the second half.


With Ellington also out with a turf toe injury, David Johnson will be the guy to have moving forward this year, and given CJ's age...???
