The Arizona Cardinals made a surprise announcement yesterday in selecting QB Carson Palmer as its 18th inductee into the Ring of Honor. This announcement came just a little over a year since Carson Palmer retired, which is about as lightning fast as the abrupt ACL tear that Palmer suffered on a low hit by Steelers’ defensive lineman Kimo von Oelhoffen in Palmer’s first playoff game with the Bengals---on a 66 yard completion, no less.
Whether you believe Carson Palmer deserves this distinguished honor or not (as of this morning 55% of the 552 Cardinals’ fans on the Arizona Republic poll believe he does not)---its a moot point.
