Carson Palmer

He won the 2002 Heisman Trophy and has been a starting QB in the NFL for the Bengals and Raiders

Carson Palmer is a former professional football quarterback who made a significant impact during his 14 seasons in the NFL. Born on December 27, 1979, Palmer first gained national attention during his college career at the University of Southern California (USC), where he won the prestigious Heisman Trophy in 2002. His strong arm, leadership, and ability to read defenses made him a standout prospect, leading to his selection as the first overall pick in the 2003 NFL Draft by the Cincinnati Bengals. Palmer's collegiate success set the stage for a long and productive professional career.

Palmer's time with the Cincinnati Bengals was marked by both individual success and team milestones. He played eight seasons with the Bengals, during which he helped the team achieve its first winning season and playoff appearance in 15 years. Palmer was named to two Pro Bowls during his tenure in Cincinnati, solidifying his reputation as one of the league's top quarterbacks. However, his relationship with the Bengals' ownership deteriorated over time, leading to his eventual trade to the Oakland Raiders in 2011. Despite showing flashes of brilliance, Palmer's time in Oakland was relatively short-lived, lasting only two seasons.

Palmer's career experienced a resurgence when he joined the Arizona Cardinals in 2013. His most successful season came in 2015, when he led the Cardinals to a division title and an appearance in the NFC Championship Game. That year, Palmer was named to his third Pro Bowl and earned second-team All-Pro honors, further cementing his legacy as a top-tier quarterback. Unfortunately, injuries plagued the latter part of his career, and after spending much of the 2017 season on injured reserve, Palmer decided to retire from professional football.

Throughout his career, Palmer was known for his strong arm, poise under pressure, and ability to elevate the play of those around him. His leadership on and off the field made him a respected figure in the NFL, and his contributions to the Bengals and Cardinals franchises will not be forgotten. Palmer's legacy as a quarterback is one of perseverance, talent, and professionalism, and he remains a beloved figure in the football community.
