Carlson went 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts in Sunday's 40-6 loss to the Colts.
The kicker missed wide right on a 57-yard attempt as time expired in the first half, though he did make field goals from 24 and 37 yards, respectively. Carlson is now 9-for-12 on field-goal tries and a perfect 6-for-6 on extra points this season. Between the misses and a Raiders offense that has yet to score more than 24 points this year, Carlson is not one of the better kicking options in fantasy football at the moment.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Has kick blocked Sunday
Rotowire
Carlson made one of two field goals and all three extra-point attempts in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Bears.
The kicker had a 54-yard field-goal attempt blocked in the final minute of the game that would have put the Raiders ahead. Carlson is now seven of nine on field goals and six of six on extra points in 2025. His opportunities have been somewhat limited in a struggling Raiders offense.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Hits field goal and PAT in loss
Rotowire
Carlson made his only field-goal attempt, a 37-yarder, and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Commanders.
The kicker did not have many opportunities on a day when the Raiders attempted multiple two-point conversions. While Carlson is now six of seven on field goals and three of three on extra points this year, he will probably need better game scripts from his team to become a big scorer.

Rotowire
Carlson converted two of three field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Las Vegas' 20-13 win over the Patriots on Sunday.
Carlson missed his first field goal versus New England, pushing his 58-yard attempt wide to the left at the end of the first half. He came back to make 51- and 40-yard attempts in the second half.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Racks up 13 points in win
Rotowire
Carlson converted all four of his field-goal attempts and one of two extra-point tries in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Saints.
Carlson contributed 13 total points before his XP attempt on the Raiders' final touchdown of the game was blocked in the fourth quarter. His otherwise impressive performance was highlighted by a 54-yard make, improving to seven of 11 on FG attempts from 50-plus yards this season. Carlson could have more chances to add to this tally if the Raiders offense stalls often against a stout Chargers defense in Week 18.

Carlson's contributions were highlighted by a 49-yard field goal early in the second quarter en route to his seven-point final tally, though he missed wide right from 46 yards in the second half. Nonetheless, a favorable matchup indoors against the Saints awaits Carlson in Week 17.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Nails 52-yard FG on MNF
Rotowire
Carlson converted his only field-goal attempt in Monday's 15-9 loss to the Falcons, but his lone extra-point try was blocked.
Carlson booted a 52-yard field goal to put the Raiders' first three points on the board early in the second quarter, but his extra-point attempt later in the fourth was blocked. This offense could benefit from quarterback Aidan O'Connell's (knee) potential return for a Week 16 matchup against the Jaguars, which would improve Carlson's outlook as a reliable kicking option.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Inaccurate in Friday's loss
Rotowire
Carlson made one of four field-goal tries and converted both of his extra-point attempts Friday in a Week 13 loss to Kansas City.
Carlson came into the contest with just two misses on 24 field-goal tries on the season, but he uncharacteristically struggled to kick the ball between the uprights Friday. His only successful field goal came from a meager 27 yards out, while he missed from 56, 55 and 58 yards. Of course, those are long, difficult attempts even in Friday's kicking environment, so it's very doubtful that Carlson's inaccuracy in this one will put his job in any danger.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Makes two short FGs in loss
Rotowire
Carlson made both of his field-goal attempts and converted his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 34-19 loss to the Dolphins.
Carlson connected from 27 and 22 yards in the first half before tacking on an extra point late in the fourth quarter, bringing his tally to seven points for the contest. He's a perfect 13 of 13 on field-goal attempts since Week 4, but scoring chances could remain limited for Las Vegas against a stout Broncos defense in Week 12.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Six-point effort Sunday
Rotowire
Carlson converted his only field-goal attempt and all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Bengals.
Carlson hasn't missed a field-goal attempt since Week 3, and an uninspiring Raiders offense that will likely feature either Gardner Minshew or Desmond Ridder at the helm following a Week 10 bye could struggle to score touchdowns against the Dolphins in Week 11.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Boots 54-yard FG in loss
Rotowire
Carlson converted both of his field-goal attempts and tacked on a pair of extra points in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Chiefs.
Carlson booted a 54-yard field goal to give the Raiders a 10-7 lead early in the second quarter, and he added a 32-yard make in the second half. He's accrued 23 total points over Las Vegas' last two games, but Carlson will be kicking without a roof for the first time since Week 5 when the Raiders head outdoors to Cincinnati in Week 9.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Racks up 15 points in loss
Rotowire
Carlson converted all five of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 20-15 loss to the Rams.
Carlson was the only Raider to put points on the board in this contest, rebounding from a slow Week 6 outing in which he attempted just one extra point all game against the Steelers. A tough test awaits for this Las Vegas offense with Gardner Minshew at the helm versus the Chiefs in Week 8, but Carlson remains steady when given the opportunity to boot it through the uprights.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Zero FG attempts in Week 6 loss
Rotowire
Carlson converted his only extra-point try in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.
The Raiders did not attempt a single field goal in a game for the first time this season Sunday, leaving Carlson with just one tally in the box score on an extra point that came after a three-yard Alexander Mattison rushing touchdown on the team's opening drive. Carlson could have more opportunities to put points on the board in a friendlier matchup against the Rams at SoFi Stadium in Week 7.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Makes 40-yard field goal Sunday
Rotowire
Carlson converted his only field-goal attempt and made his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 34-18 loss to the Broncos.
Carlson connected from 40 yards to give the Raiders a 10-0 lead heading into the second quarter, but that would mark his final chance to put points on the board as the offense elected for a two-point conversion upon scoring late in the fourth quarter. It could be another low-scoring affair for this team in Week 6 against a stout Steelers defense.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: No good from 57 in Week 3 loss
Rotowire
Carlson missed his only field-goal attempt in Sunday's 36-22 loss to the Panthers, but he made both of his extra-point tries.
Carlson was unable to convert from 57 yards out with time expiring in the first half, ultimately sending the Raiders to the locker room with a 14-point deficit just one week after he tallied 14 points of his own in an upset victory over the Ravens. Carlson will look to bounce back from the underwhelming output in Sunday's home opener when Las Vegas hosts the Browns in Week 4.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Misses 49-yard attempt in loss
Rotowire
Carlson made one of two field-goal attempts and converted his only extra-point try in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Chargers.
Carlson opened his 2024 campaign on the wrong foot with a wide-right miss from 49 yards out late in the third quarter, but he quickly rebounded with a 32-yard make on the Raiders' very next drive to salvage a four-point day. An even more difficult matchup awaits outdoors in Baltimore against the Ravens in Week 2, and the Raiders' offensive concerns further limit Carlson's ceiling.

Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Slightly regresses in 2023
Rotowire
Carlson converted both of his field-goal attempts and three extra-point tries in the Raiders' Week 18 win over the Broncos, ultimately finishing the 2023 campaign with 26 total field goals made on 30 attempts to go along with 32 extra points on as many tries.
Carlson nailed less than 33 field goals while posting a sub-90 percent conversion rate in a single season for the first time since 2019, notching just 110 total points across 17 games in 2023. Nonetheless, he remains one of the more reliable kickers around the league, and Carlson has two years remaining on his current contract with the Raiders.

Rotowire
Carlson (illness) did not participate in practice Thursday, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.
The kicker was not listed on Wednesday's injury report. His status will be something to monitor as the Raiders' Week 14 matchup with the Vikings approaches. Las Vegas does not have another kicker on its roster.
