Palmer was held out of practice all week as he continues to be bothered by a nerve issue in his right shoulder. He completed 24 of 37 passes for 304 yards with two scores in last week's 18-17 win over San Diego.
Cardinals backup quarterback Drew Stanton will start in Palmer's place.
It's been 1,355 days since Drew Stanton last played in an NFL game. He started Week 15 of 2010 for the Lions. 23/37, 252y, 1TD in W over TB.
