This is Baker’s second fine this season. Three weeks ago, he was penalized $8,268 for grabbing the face mask of Philadelphia’s Jason Peters, after Baker took out Eagles quarterback Nick Foles on an interception play. The play led to a fight between both teams. Baker was later ejected from the game.

Palmer has seen limited play with the Cardinals this season due to a shoulder injury.
