While I was watching the game (I fell asleep right after, hence not posting until now) and my impression was that they were taking a long look at Palko to either a) assess whether or not he can act as the team's primary backup, or b) try and showcase him for a possible trade scenario.
My guess is that they already know they're keeping Stanzi as the 3rd quarterback on the 53, and that it was more important for them to ascertain whether Palko could play in Cassel's stead, and whether or not they need to find some kind of veteran replacement either after the final cuts or via a trade of their own.
Looking at it in that light, I think playing Palko the way they did was absolutely the correct approach.
