The Palmer era in Cincinnati is finally over. Per Bengals.com writer Geoff Hobson the Bengals have released Carson Palmer‘s younger brother Jordan Palmer. This move doesn’t come as much of a shock considering that it was just yesterday I was noting the possibility that the team may not even keep 3 QB’s

Look for Lefevour to make it to the final cut down day because of the need of another camp body. After that it’s really a coin flip if he will be on the 53 man roster, but considering his age and his lack of NFL playing time Dan Lefevour could very well be taking the role of practice squad Quarterback.

There were so many rumors that the Bengals were in love Jordan Palmer, and that they even were looking at him to viable option to start at QB this season. It looks that the team finally remembered, Jordan isn’t Carson.

The Bengals also have reportedly cut ties with the following players:

• Fred Bennett CB
• Tom Nelson S
• LeRoy Vann CB/KR
• Stephen Franklin LB (R)
• Jamere Holland WR/KR (R)
