Carson Palmer remembers the first time he played after tearing his ACL back in 2006, seeing “color flash in front of you” and mentally not being able to step into a pass.
“I don’t feel that way now,” the Cardinals quarterback said Wednesday, with his first game appearance coming Saturday in the team’s preseason opener against the Chiefs at University of Phoenix Stadium.
“That’s the biggest mental hurdle I had last time that I don’t think I have this time,” Palmer added.
Coach Bruce Arians said Palmer will play one series against Kansas City, whether that is one play, three plays or 10.
