The Oakland Raiders have tabbed Carson Palmer to lead the Silver and Black renaissance by trading for the former USC Heisman winner on deadline day.
Palmer spent the first six weeks of the season holding out in the hope that the Bengals would trade him. The 31-year-old veteran got his wish and then some. He'll be reunited with Hue Jackson, his original offensive coordinator at USC, and stay near home in California.
"Awesome for him," said Lane Kiffin. "Hue Jackson was here before we got here. I think he has a good relationship with Carson, so that will make the terminology easier. It's great for Carson. Not only does he get a chance to play, he gets to stay out here in California too."
