The Cardinals have activated kicker Matt Prater from injured reserve following his knee surgery, with Chad Ryland temporarily filling in during his absence. Prater has been perfect on field goals and extra points this season. The team also promoted punter Michael Palardy, who replaced the injured Blake Gillikin, averaging 48.5 yards per punt in his debut. Additionally, the Cardinals re-signed running back Tony Jones Jr. to the practice squad due to Emari Demercado's injury and signed linebacker Deshawn Banks as Jesse Luketa deals with a thigh injury.
