Back with active roster The Cardinals elevated Chisena to their active roster Saturday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Impact Zach Pascal has been dealing with a hamstring issue and is listed as questionable for Sunday's affair, so Chisena's elevation will ensure some extra depth at wide receiver. The Penn State product has already appeared in three games for Arizona this season, recording two total tackles on 41 special teams snaps.

Impact The Vikings released Chisena from their practice squad Tuesday, and one day later the former Penn State wideout has latched on with Arizona.

Lands future deal The Steelers signed Chisena to a reserve/future contract Monday.

Impact Chisena signed a practice-squad deal with the Vikings after failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster and saw two elevations during the 2022 campaign, though 24 of his 26 snaps during those contests came on special teams. Minnesota didn't sign him to a reserve/future contract after being eliminated from the playoffs, making the third-year wideout a free agent. With his new deal, he'll be able to join the Steelers' organization and compete for a roster spot during the offseason.

Moves back to practice squad Chisena reverted to Minnesota's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Chisena got his second elevation of the season prior to Sunday's Week 9 win over Washington and didn't see any snaps on offense. He logged 16 snaps on special teams, making one tackle on punt coverage. Chisena has worked almost exclusively as a special teamer during his three NFL seasons.

Impact Chisena draws his first elevation of the season and is in line to make his season debut in Week 5. The 25-year-old wideout has appeared in 25 games for Minnesota over the past two seasons, but he's played primarily on special teams, logging just 11 offensive snaps. The wideout has yet to catch a pass in the NFL.

Lands on COVID-19 list Chisena was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.

Impact Chisena will need to produce back-to-back negative tests at least 24 hours apart or complete a 10-day quarantine before he is able to return to team facilities. The wideout hasn't seen more than five offensive snaps in a game this season, so his potential absence shouldn't impact the Vikings' offensive gameplan.
