INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Punter Jeremy Kapinos will join the Indianapolis Colts and fill in while Pat McAfee is suspended.

Coach Jim Caldwell said Tuesday that Kapinos will punt for the Colts. He punted 66 times last season for Green Bay and averaged 43.8 yards per attempt.

McAfee was arrested last week for public intoxication and drew a team-imposed one-game suspension that will keep him out of Monday night’s home game against Houston.

Police say McAfee was found early Oct. 20 with a blood-alcohol content of 0.15 percent, nearly twice the legal limit for driving in Indiana.
