Since being released, Blankenship worked out for a few teams (Jaguars, Cardinals, etc) before eventually signing with the Cardinals practice squad to help fill-in for their regular kicker Matt Prater who is recovering from a hip injury.
In his first game action for AZ:
The Good: Specs went 2 for 2 on FG's including a 50 YD FG
The Bad: Specs missed an extra point attempt (2 for 3 on XP's)
Still seems to be a bit inconsistent with the results.
I wish him well, but I like that the Colts now have a FG kicker who can routinely make 50+ YD FG's.
