Cardinals K Matt Prater (hip) is inactive for tonight's game vs. the Saints. Rodrigo Blankenship will kick for Arizona.

Cardinals K Matt Prater (hip) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Saints. He didn't practice all week, so we're not expecting him to play. Assuming that's the case, K Rodrigo Blankenship will be called up from the practice squad and kick against New Orleans.

The Cardinals released K Matt Ammendola and signed K Rodrigo Blankenship to the practice squad. Blankenship will kick vs. the Saints on Thursday night if K Matt Prater (hip) isn't ready.

The Colts released K Rodrigo Blankenship. He missed a 42-yard FG to win the game in overtime last week. The Colts haven't signed a replacement yet.

The Colts on Saturday placed K Rodrigo Blankenship on IR for his hip injury. That means Blankenship will miss at least the next 3 games. Indy also elevated K Michael Badgley from the practice squad. He'll handle kicking duties Sunday against the Texans.

Colts K Rodrigo Blankenship (hip) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Texans. Michael Badgley will kick for Indianapolis in that one and is a fine Week 6 fantasy fill in. The Colts are sporting a big 27-point implied total.

Colts K Rodrigo Blankenship injured his hip in the 1st quarter of Monday night's game vs. the Ravens, HC Frank Reich said. Blankenship ended up missing an XP, getting a FG blocked and missing a 47-yard FG that would have won the game as time expired. We'll keep an eye on Blankenship this week, but you should plan on using someone else in Week 6 fantasy lineups.

K Rodrigo Blankenship has won the Colts’ starting job. Per Adam Schefter, the team waived veteran K Eddy Pineiro this morning. Blankenship was awesome last year — connecting on 32 of 37 kicks — so this move isn’t a surprise. He sits 6th in our kicker rankings.

The Colts signed K Eddy Pineiro to a 1-year deal. It's a curious move with K Rodrigo Blankenship coming off a strong rookie season (32 of 37 on FGs). Pineiro was out of work last year but connected on 23 of 28 FGs for the Bears back in 2019. Blankenship remains a heavy favorite to be the Colts' kicker in 2021, but he carries a bit more risk in fantasy drafts right now.

The Colts have released K Chase McLaughlin. That's a bit surprising. He filled in for an injured Adam Vinatieri last year, making 5 of 6 FGs and all 11 extra-point attempts over the final 4 games. The release appears to leave rookie Rodrigo Blankenship as the winner of the kicker competition. All the reports we'd seen out of Colts camp had Blankenship not performing particularly well. This doesn't look like a kicker situation to target in your fantasy football drafts. But if you take a Colts kicker, make sure it's not McLaughlin.
