Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer is unlikely to play another game in the 2008 season but he will delay a decision on whether to have surgery to repair a "frayed" ligament in his right throwing elbow, sources told ESPN.
Palmer injured the arm in a Sept. 21 game against the New York Giants. He has played only once since -- against the Cowboys on Oct. 5
That's ESPN reporting second hand information from unnamed sources. I'm not sure if that is officially hearsay or not. But, you will concede ESPN reporting what unnamed sources told them isn't the same as the Bengals releasing this information, yes?
Oops, guess we both should have kept reading your source, "Neither the Bengals nor Palmer have a comment about the specifics of the injury and the plan."
