TEMPE, Ariz. -- Carson Palmer is practicing again with the Arizona Cardinals after sitting out a game with a concussion and will be back at the controls when the team hosts the New York Jets on Monday night.Feel great, the 36-year-old quarterback said after the Wednesday workout. Good to be back.The practice was the first for the Cardinals since their 33-21 road victory over the San Francisco 49ers last Thursday night.Its great, coach Bruce Arians said of having Palmer back. You always want your leader out there and he is the leader.Palmer was not limited in practice.The quarterback said he believed he would have been able to play had the last game not been on a Thursday.My wife was definitely freaked out, he said, but I was ready to play if we had a Sunday game.Palmer said it was the first concussion of his 14-year NFL career, then knocked on the wooden podium for luck.He said the injury is part of our reality as football players.Palmer said he just followed doctors orders, treatment that included a specialist from the Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix.Weve got so much help and so much information and so many professionals and everybodys extremely cautious with it, he said. You just trust in the doctors and what the professionals are telling you and thats how you cope with it.Palmer was injured when his head slammed to the turf on a sack by Aaron Donald late in Arizonas 17-13 home loss to the Los Angeles Rams on Oct. 2. He had started 22 consecutive games before missing the 49ers contest.Backup Drew Stanton was just 11 of 28 for 124 yards against San Francisco but threw two touchdown passes to Larry Fitzgerald and was not intercepted. Most of the Cardinals offense came from David Johnson, who rushed for 157 yards and two scores, earning the second-year running back NFC offensive player of the week honors.Arizona lost starting guards Evan Mathis and Mike Iupati with ankle injuries in the game. Mathis was placed on injured reserve. Iupatis injury is a sprain and its not known when he will return.Its a big blow, Palmer said. Those two guys have -- I dont know -- 16, 17, 18 years between the two of them. Pro Bowls, two Super Bowls, theres a lot of experience. Theres a lot of talent, leadership. ... Those are two of the bigger guys in the NFL, but thats the NFL. Youve got to step up and the next guy up has to play.John Wetzel and Earl Watford will move into the guard spots. Wetzel, whose career has almost entirely been at tackle, was praised by Arians for his play against San Francisco.Palmer, like his team, is off to a slow start after a big 2016 season. He has completed 59 percent of his passes (90 of 153) for 1,150 yards and six touchdowns with five interceptions.After leading the NFL with 408 yards per game last season, the Arizona offense ranks 13th through five games (363 yards per game), even though all of the skill players returned.The Cardinals (2-3) need a victory to get back to .500.I always feel like were close (to regaining last seasons form), Palmer said. You just continue to practice and you continue to work and hope that what you do on the practice field shows up on Sundays. Were just going to continue to work, and if we have to run the ball for 158 yards or whatever it was (172 yards against San Francisco), were happy to do that if thats a winning recipe for us. But were always working on the passing game.Game notes The Cardinals re-signed quarterback Zac Dysert to the practice squad. He was promoted to the active roster last week to serve as backup to Stanton but was released early this week. ... Johnson is the only player in the NFL with at least 100 yards from scrimmage in all five games. ...

CHICAGO -- After a dismal three-plus quarters of offense, San Francisco 49ers coach Chip Kelly benched quarterback Colin Kaepernick for Blaine Gabbert early in the fourth quarter of Sundays 26-6 loss to the?Chicago Bears.Kaepernick, who entered the game having thrown for more yards in the past four games than in any four-game stretch in his career, struggled mightily in the cold and snow of Soldier Field.At the time the Niners pulled him for Gabbert, Kaepernick was 1-of-5 passing for 4 yards, with no touchdowns and no interceptions for a passer rating of 39.6. He was also sacked five times for 25 yards, leaving the Niners with negative-21 net passing yards and a 24-6 deficit at the time of his departure.In the process, Kaepernick became the first quarterback in NFL history to be sacked five times and throw for fewer than 5 yards in a game, according to ESPN Stats & Information.I thought we needed a spark on offense, needed to get something going, Kelly said. [I] knew we were going to be throwing every down, so give Blaine a shot. That was it, nothing more.Kaepernick said he was surprised he got pulled but didnt feel it was his place to put up a fight when quarterbacks coach Ryan Day informed him of the change despite getting so few chances to throw.It wasnt something I was expecting, Kaepernick said. I am always prepared and ready to do everything I can to help this team win.Its not about my feelings. Its about being able to help this team win. This coaching staff didnt feel like I was out there being able to help this team win, so they made a change, whether I agree with that or not.The Niners spent last week practicing in the 85-degree temperatures of Orlando, leaving them to struggle in the cold and wet conditions of Soldier Field. Kaepernick, in particular, had trouble getting the ball out quickly and accurately.I think the weather was something that definitely played a factor, Kaepernick said. We have to be able to do a better job managing that, handling it, being able to throw the ball still.ddddddddddddMore than anything, its tougher throwing a wet football, but once again its something that we have to be better at in being able to handle that.On Gabberts first attempt, he completed an 18-yard pass to wide receiver Jeremy Kerley. Gabbert finished 4-of-10 passing for 35 yards, with no touchdowns and no interceptions. He was sacked once for a safety. All told, the Niners finished with 6 net passing yards.After the game, Kelly said there had been no discussions about who will start at quarterback next week against the New York Jets and no permanent decisions have been made.I was just watching how the ball was coming off of his hands and what our chances were of completing them, Kelly said. Maybe I was too cautious, but we didnt look like we were doing much in the passing game.Kaepernick said whether he starts moving forward is not up to him and whether he believes he should is inconsequential.Thats not my decision, Kaepernick said. My feelings on it really dont matter at this point. Im just going to do everything I can to make sure Im prepared.Kaepernicks yardage output was, by far, the worst of his career in a game he started. His previous worst was a 67-yard outing against?Arizona?on Sept. 27, 2015.After losing a preseason competition to Gabbert for the starting job, Kaepernick took over before the teams Week 6 game against Buffalo. Sunday was Kaepernicks seventh start of the season and the only one of those games he did not finish.Kaepernick had been steadily improving over the past month but acknowledged that Sundays loss was a setback. Asked about an NFL Network report that he plans to opt out of his contract after the season, Kaepernick repeated the answer he has given when asked about it all season.Once again, like Ive said all along, my focus is on the next game, Kaepernick said. So my focus has been on the Bears this past week. ' ' '
