Black and Silver

There were a few notable trades that were squeezed in before the deadline on Tuesday october 18, at 4 O'clock p.m. However, none bigger then the Carson Palmer trade from the Cincinnati Bengals to the Oakland Raiders. After a long 2010 season with the Bengals Carson Palmer requested a trade to another team and when owner Mike Brown said we do not deal with the players that are demanding they want, Palmer said he was going to retire. Carson Palmer threw for 362 completions, 3,970 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 20 interceptions in 2010 season. After the season he was denied a trade request and threatened retirement and all offseason he thought he was retired and he was until October 18, when he was traded to the Raiders. The Oakland Raiders are in their first year with their new head coach Hue Jackson, who used to be the wide receiver coach in Cincinnati. Hue Jackson said that "this is the greatest trade in football," which shows that Jackson and Palmer have a great relationship going into this Sunday's game. This Sunday Carson Palmer is expected to start already on the new team against the Kansas City Chiefs. This is the first time Carson Palmer will be playing in a different jersey other then a Cincinnati Bengals jersey since he has been in the NFL. Bye black and orange, hello black and silver.
