Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater has been ruled out for this week’s game with a hip injury and Matt Ammendola will take over kicking duties against the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Cardinals signed Ammendola to the practice squad Tuesday.

Ammendola, 25, arrived after a short stint in Kansas City. He subbed in for the injured Harrison Butker in Weeks 2 and 3 but was cut by the Chiefs last week after missing a PAT and a 34-yard field goal in a Week 3 loss to Indianapolis.

Prater, 38, was unable to finish last Sunday’s win at Carolina, leading Arizona to use running back Eno Benjamin to kick off three times against the Panthers.
