Fitzgerald and Palmer out of HOF game

The Arizona Cardinals will take the field in Canton without their two senior members on offense.

Coach Bruce Arians told reporters Saturday that neither Carson Palmer nor Larry Fitzgerald will play in the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio on August 3.

There’s nothing unusual about resting old timers during games that won’t at all factor into their roster spot.

The Cardinals will likely start backup quarterback Drew Stanton in Palmer’s place.
