The England international was replaced in Chelsea's starting lineup by Brazilian teenager Estêvão. The 18-year-old was making his first start in the Premier League after arriving from Palmeiras in the summer.
After leaving the warm-up early and walking down the tunnel, Palmer took a seat on the Chelsea bench as the game kicked off.
