Mandatory Credit: Joe Camporeale-Imagn Images The Arizona Cardinals downgraded punter Blake Gillikin from questionable to out for their game Sunday against the host Indianapolis Colts.
Pat O'Donnell will handle the punting and holding duties for the Cardinals (2-3) in place of Gillikin, who sustained a back injury this week. O'Donnell was signed to the roster on Friday.
Gillikin, 27, has punted in all five games this season with Arizona. He is in his third season with the Cardinals after spending the prior two with the New Orleans Saints.
Also on Saturday, the Cardinals added defensive lineman Bilal Nichols to the injury report as questionable to play against the Colts (4-1) due to personal reasons.
Nichols, 29, was activated from the physically unable to perform and played in Arizona's 22-21 loss to the Tennessee Titans last Sunday.
