. Anyway, I remember posting a thread Would Carson Palmer be dejected if his younger brother did not make the team. I received more negative reputation with that thread and just a question than in my history of posting. His brother was horrible and later on, many members hated Carson.
Ironically, Carson was more upset that the Bengals let Kitna leave for Detroit.
I’ll never forget the day after the gutwrenching knee injury against Pittsburgh. He hobbled into the stadium that morning, looking rough and uncomfortable (and he was wearing a Syracuse Orange hoodie for some reason). Came in for a final interview for that season.
A reporter asked what the Bengals should do with kitna, and Carson responded that issue was “his number one concern”. I don’t remember exactly what he said after that, but he made it crystal clear he wanted Kitna as his backup.
Obviously, this did not happen. And to this day, whenever Carson is asked why he demanded a trade, this is always a reason he lists.
Now let’s just say the Bengals let Thad walk sometime soon… Fast forward 15+ years, does Joe list this instance as a reason why he demanded a trade from the Bengals
