Matt Prater wins second ‘Special Teams Player of the Week’ for Arizona Cardinals

Matt Prater rebounded after a tough Christmas night, and in turn won the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week for the Arizona Cardinals.

From the team:

This is Prater’s second “Special Teams Player of the Week” this season after he previously won the award following Arizona’s Week 6 win at Cleveland. It is also the seventh “Player of the Week” selection for the Cardinals in 2021, tied for the most selections in a single season in team history (2009).

Prater is the first Cardinals player to win “Special Teams Player of the Week” twice in the same season since 2014 (Chandler Catanzaro) and is just the third kicker in team history to accomplish that feat.
