2024 Fantasy Outlook
After being selected in the sixth round of the NFL Draft, Palmer was the No. 3 receiver for the Buccaneers. Palmer took on that role after Russell Gage suffered a season-ending injury in the preseason. Palmer didn’t have more than four catches in any game. In addition, the receiver only surpassed 22 yards once in his first 14 games. Palmer did show potential by averaging 44.8 yards over his last five games, which included two playoff games. It should be noted that Palmer often played in the slot, but new offensive coordinator Liam Coen said he expects Chris Godwin to see an increased slot role. Also, the Bucs added Jalen McMillan in the draft. It would seem that McMillan would have the edge for an outside role over Palmer when the team goes to three-receiver sets, If that happens, Palmer’s production and playing time could suffer.

Out for Thursday night
Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said Wednesday that Palmer (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Falcons, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Palmer entered the NFL's concussion protocol during Sunday's win over the Eagles, so he never seemed to be a likely candidate to gain full clearance on a short week. With Jalen McMillan (hamstring) also ruled out for Thursday, Tampa Bay could have to rely heavily on veteran wideout Sterling Shepard and Kameron Johnson to pick up slack behind starters Mike Evans (knee/calf) and Chris Godwin. Palmer and McMillan will both work to return to full health in time to take on the Saints in Week 6.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Palmer may only be a rookie sixth-round pick, but his 4.33 40-yard dash is the stuff of a higher-pedigreed player. He finished his college career at Nebraska last year after transferring from LSU and made the most of the move, totaling 71 catches, 1,043 receiving yards and nine touchdowns. Palmer's speed is naturally unrivaled on the team, but how well it translates against pro defenses remains to be seen. For the moment, he seems almost certain to open the season as the No. 4 wideout, at best, behind the experienced trio of Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Russell Gage.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to reclaim WR3 duties Sunday
Palmer is set to serve as the Buccaneers' No. 3 wideout behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin due to Jalen McMillan being listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Eagles with a hamstring injury, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Palmer has failed to haul in a pass over the last two regular-season games, as he's seen his playing time diminish while playing behind Evans, Godwin and McMillan. However, with McMillan unlikely to play Sunday, Palmer has an opportunity to earn a larger role for himself in the offense if he can establish himself as a reliable target for quarterback Baker Mayfield. Palmer played in all 17 regular-season games for Tampa Bay in 2023, and he finished with 39 catches on 68 targets for 385 yards and three touchdowns.
