The Cardinals placed Baccellia (neck) on injured reserve Tuesday, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports. Arizona signed practice-squad member Jalen Brooks to replace Baccellia on the 53-man roster and in the receiver room. Baccellia exited this past Sunday's 40-20 loss to the Texans in the second quarter due to a neck injury suffered during a collision on a kickoff return. Though he was able to fly back to Arizona after a brief hospital stay in Houston, Baccellia's injury was deemed severe enough to keep him out for the Cardinals' final three games. The 28-year-old wideout will finish the 2025 season with two catches for eight yards on four targets and 236 yards on nine kickoff returns over his five appearances.

Baccellia (neck) was stretchered off the field during Sunday's game against the Texans and will not return, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports. Baccellia suffered a scary neck injury late in the second quarter, but the good news is that the 28-year-old wideout had full movement in his extremities. He's been taken to a local hospital to undergo further tests, and without Baccellia the rest of the day, Emari Demercado will likely serve as the Cardinals' primary returner on kickoffs.

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.

The Cardinals waived Baccellia on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Baccellia spent most of the previous three seasons going up and down from the Cardinals' practice squad and active roster. He has seven career catches for 45 yards across 13 games. Baccellia caught seven passes for 85 scoreless yards during the preseason.
