Carson Palmer wants out of Cincinnati. Bengals owner Mike Brown says he won’t make a trade.
So will Brown budge? NFL Network information man Michael Lombardi doesn’t see it happening.
“I stress this strongly: Mike Brown is a man of his word,” Lombardi said. “When he says he’s not going to do something, he won’t do it.”
But let’s just suppose … if Palmer did leave, where could he end up? Lombardi suggests the 49ers, who have several members of the front office represented by agent David Dunn, who also represents Palmer.
