Cardinals' Carson Palmer says nerve issue still lingering

Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer sounded slightly less optimistic about his chances of suiting up against the Denver Broncos when speaking with ESPN's Ed Werder on Tuesday.

Palmer admitted the nerve issue in his shoulder hasn't progressed the way he had hoped, but said he still thinks he could prove capable of starting Sunday, according to Werder.

This comes nearly a week after Palmer said he would "definitely be ready against Denver." 

The Cardinals are 2-0 in Palmer's absence, so they probably aren't losing too much sleep over the prospects of starting Drew Stanton again.
