Chad Ryland

Prater has been on injured reserve since October 15th. He's not eligible to return until Week 12, meaning there's still plenty of time for him to recover from his injury before the team can even consider activating him. Prater's replacement, Chad Ryland, has converted on 10-of-11 field goal attempts this season and has two field goals of 50-plus yards to his name. His emergence could put the Cardinals in a tough decision once Prater is healthy enough to be activated.

Chad Ryland did not begin the season as Arizona s kicker but he made an impact in October with Matt Prater out due to injury.
