Cardinals' Andre Baccellia: Signed to Arizona's active roster
Rotowire
The Cardinals signed Baccellia from the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday.
Baccellia opted to stay in Arizona as a member of the team's practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp in late August. He hasn't appeared in a regular-season game since 2023, but his addition to the active roster comes after the Cardinals placed fellow wide receivers Zay Jones (Achilles) and Simi Fehoko (wrist) on injured reserve. With Marvin Harrison (appendix) ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers and Xavier Weaver (ankle) listed as questionable, Baccellia could play a meaningful role on offense in his 2025 regular-season debut.
The Cardinals signed Baccellia to the practice squad Thursday, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports.
Baccellia has spent most of the past four years on the Cardinals' practice squad, though he has played in 13 regular-season games between 2022 (eight) and 2023 (five). He'll once again serve as organizational depth to start the year and will aim to see regular-season action for the first time since Week 13 of the 2023 season.

Cardinals' Andre Baccellia: Sees season-high snap total
Rotowire
Baccellia went without a target while playing 31 of the Cardinals' 68 snaps on offense in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Steelers.
Though his 46 percent snap share was by far a season-high rate for the 26-year-old receiver, he still has yet to draw a single look in the passing game through his five appearances with Arizona. Baccellia's playing time climbed Sunday while Michael Wilson (shoulder) and Zach Pascal (personal) were out, but if either or both wideouts return to action following Arizona's Week 14 bye, Baccellia will likely be in store for a significant reduction in snaps.
The Cardinals signed Baccellia to their active roster Saturday, Howard Balzer of GoPHNX.com reports.
Baccellia's signing to the active roster could very well be in response to Michael Wilson (shoulder) popping up on the Cardinals' injury report Friday. Baccellia, a second-year wideout, has appeared in two games for Arizona this year, playing a total of 11 snaps (five offensive and six on special teams) and returning one kickoff for 22 yards.
Baccellia signed with the Cardinals' practice squad Wednesday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Baccellia has bounced between the Cardinals' 53-man roster, practice squad and being a free agent multiple times this season, most recently being waived Monday after signing with the active roster ahead of Sunday's loss to the Browns.
