NFL: Carson Palmer Forced to Retire?


Carson Palmer has been threatening to retire if he is not traded. Palmer, the Quarterback of the Cincinnati Bengals is obviously not happen with his organization and the direction they are going. The Bengals are one of the worst overall franchises in the history of the NFL. They have only had 2 winning seasons in the past 20 years!

Bengals owner Mike Brown, is not backing down from his decision. He stated that he will not trade Carson Palmer.

Palmer has 4 years remaining on his contract with the Bengals.

Browns Words on Palmer:

“I honestly like Carson Palmer,” Brown said. “He was a splendid player for us. He’s a good person. I wish him well. And he is retired. That is his choice. … I’m not expecting him to be back.”

“Carson signed a contract. He made a commitment. He gave his word,” Brown said. “We relied on his word. We relied on his commitment. We expected him to perform here. He’s going to walk away from his commitment. We aren’t going to reward him for doing it.”

We'll see what happens in the standoff soon!
