Raiders Give Carson Palmer Second Chance to Live Up to Franchise Quarterback Expectations

Editor’s note: Will O’Toole contributed the following cartoon to NESN.com.

Carson Palmer has often been compared to the Statue of Liberty, but this time, the comparison has nothing to do with his lack of mobility.

The Raiders recently coughed up a pair of high draft picks for Palmer, hoping the quarterback can get a new lease on his football life in Oakland.

Since graduating from Seton Hall University, Will O’Toole has been doing cartoons for over 30 years for a number of papers (USA Today), magazines (College and Pro Football Weekly) and websites (CBSSportsline.com). He is believed to be the only national cartoonist to have voted for the Heisman Trophy and the Wooden and Naismith Awards.
