Palmer questionable with sore elbow

---

Cincinnati, OH (Sports Network) - Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer has been added to the team's injury report because of a sore right elbow.

Palmer expects to play Sunday when the Bengals host the Cleveland Browns in a battle of winless teams, but he has experienced soreness during practice this week after being sacked six times last Sunday in an overtime loss to the New York Giants.

"Carson has told us he's going to be ready to play, but he developed some carryover soreness from last week's game," said Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis. "We are backing him off a little in practice today, so he has to be listed on the report."

Palmer has completed 52-of-90 passes for 514 yards with just one touchdown and three interceptions this season. He's also been sacked nine times and his passer rating of 63.8 is 12th among 15 AFC quarterbacks.
