Palmer is scheduled to undergo surgery in two weeks, after the swelling in his knee subsides. He's not expected to return until next June or July, Arians said.

"I'm not going to lie, I cried like a baby last night," Palmer said Monday.

Palmer was injured on a sack by Rams safety Mark Barron early in the fourth quarter of the Cardinals' 31-14 victory Sunday, just two days after he signed a three-year contract extension worth a reported $50 million, including $20.5 million guaranteed.
