Pat O'Donnell: Breaking News

Cut by Arizona

The Cardinals cut O'Donnell on Tuesday. With O'Donnell jettisoned, it likely signals Blake Gillikin (back) is nearing a return to punting duties. In five games with Arizona this season, O'Donnell punted 12 times for 506 yards, averaging a career-low 42.2 yards per punt.

Joins active roster

The Cardinals signed O'Donnell to their active roster Friday. The 34-year-old's signing Friday likely suggests that Blake Gillikin (back), who popped up on Arizona's injury report Thursday as a limited practice participant, could miss the Week 6 matchup against the Colts. O'Donnell, a 10-year NFL veteran, is now expected to assume Arizona's top punter and holder duties if Gillikin is sidelined Sunday.

Let go from practice squad

O'Donnell was added to the practice squad and subsequently elevated to the active roster Saturday with Bradley Pinion dealing with an illness. Pinion was able to play Sunday, so O'Donnell's services were not needed and he was inactive for the game. He'll explore his options once he clears waivers.
