Daniel Carlson News

Daniel Carlson Has Favorable Matchup for Week 11

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson hasn't been able to offer fantasy managers much value over the last few weeks. Over the last three games, Carlson is 1-for-2 on field goal attempts, while making 3-of-4 extra point attempts. The 30-year-old hasn't been great this season, but he also doesn't get a ton of chances. The promising news is that Carlson is heading into a favorable matchup in Week 11. The Raiders will face off against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night. The Cowboys have struggled to contain anyone this season, so the Raiders should be able to get into scoring position. Carlson isn't an ideal fantasy option, but he should offer better value than he has the past few weeks.

Daniel Carlson Difficult to Trust in Week 7 Against Chiefs

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson draws a challenging matchup in Week 7 versus the Kansas City Chiefs, making him a risky fantasy start. The Chiefs have allowed the eighth-fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers this season and continue to limit scoring opportunities with one of the league's stingiest defenses. Meanwhile, Geno Smith and the Raiders offense have struggled to sustain drives or finish in scoring position, further capping Carlson's upside. While the veteran remains a very accurate kicker, his lack of opportunity makes him tough to trust in fantasy lineups this week. Managers should consider streaming a kicker from a more favorable offensive environment until the Raiders show more consistency.

Daniel Carlson's Fantasy Value Stalls Amid Raiders' Turnover Woes

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson remains a low-upside option for fantasy managers despite a potentially favorable Week 6 matchup against the Titans. The Raiders' offense has struggled to sustain drives, posting the league's second-highest turnover rate at 18.5%, and quarterback Geno Smith's inconsistency compounds Carlson's limited scoring opportunities. Even in games with red zone chances, the Raiders' inefficiency reduces Carlson's fantasy ceiling, making him a risky play. Until Las Vegas' offense becomes more consistent and turnover-prone plays are minimized, Carlson is unlikely to provide the reliable fantasy production owners hope for, and those with stronger options at the position should continue looking elsewhere for week-to-week stability.

Daniel Carlson's Struggles Continue Amid Raiders Offensive Woes

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson has seen his fantasy stock slide as the team's inconsistent offense limits scoring opportunities. Last week, a blocked field goal left Carlson with a single-digit performance, continuing a troubling trend for fantasy managers relying on him for steady production. With Geno Smith and the Raiders facing a tough Colts defense in Week 5, the likelihood of sustained drives and red-zone chances remains low. Carlson's leg strength and accuracy are undeniable, but fantasy owners need opportunities, and the Raiders' offensive struggles make him a risky option this week. For those seeking consistency at kicker, it may be wise to explore alternative streaming options until the Raiders can stabilize their offense and create the scoring chances Carlson needs to return to top-tier fantasy relevance.

Daniel Carlson A Solid Streaming Option In Week 4

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson is coming off a quiet Week 3 with just one field goal attempt, but the upcoming matchup against the Chicago Bears projects to provide much more scoring opportunity. The Raiders offense has been moving the ball effectively, ranking inside the top 10 in passing yards, and a high-paced game environment should set Carlson up for multiple attempts. After producing starter-worthy numbers in the first two weeks, Carlson remains firmly in play as a low-end K1 and is a strong streaming choice for fantasy managers seeking stability at the kicker position in Week 4.

Daniel Carlson Quietly Emerging as Reliable Fantasy Kicker

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson has once again proven to be a steady fantasy contributor, making five of his six field-goal attempts through two games. His lone miss came from 58 yards, showing he's been accurate and dependable from standard ranges. With the Raiders offense struggling to finish drives, Carlson has benefited from frequent opportunities to put points on the board. That trend should continue in Week 3, as he enters tied for K8 on the season and facing a lighter stretch of the schedule ahead. While often overlooked at the kicker position, Carlson's consistency makes him a viable starting option and one of the better surprises for fantasy managers early in the 2025 campaign.

Daniel Carlson Brings Modest Floor Against Chargers

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson kicked off his 2025 campaign with a solid Week 1 performance, tying for the No. 8 kicker spot with 11 fantasy points against the Patriots. The reliable Raiders specialist showcased his impressive leg strength by connecting from both 40 and 51 yards while adding a pair of extra points. Though he missed an ambitious 58-yard attempt before halftime, Carlson's powerful leg remains a valuable fantasy asset. Heading into Week 2, he faces a Chargers defense that surrendered 21 points to the Chiefs ' offense, suggesting ample scoring opportunities should be available. While not an elite option, Carlson's proven accuracy and favorable matchup position him as a dependable low-end starting kicker for managers seeking consistency from their special teams slot this weekend.

Daniel Carlson's Fantasy Value Hinges on Raiders' Offensive Growth

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson enters the 2025 season in the middle tier of fantasy options after two straight years of declining accuracy. Once considered one of the league's most reliable legs, Carlson now finds himself tied to an offense that remains more potential than production. His Week 1 matchup against the Patriots does little to boost his outlook, as New England's defense should keep scoring opportunities limited. Until the Raiders prove they can sustain drives and finish possessions consistently, Carlson is best left on the waiver wire. For now, he's a low-end streaming option without dependable week-to-week fantasy value.

Daniel Carlson's Big Leg on Display Despite Mixed Results

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson went 3-for-5 on field goals in Thursday's 23-23 tie with the Seahawks. The veteran connected from 27, 51, and 56 yards, but missed a 55-yarder before halftime and had another from the same distance blocked on the game's final play. Despite the inconsistency, Carlson's powerful leg remains a key asset. With the Raiders' offense expected to improve under new leadership, his scoring opportunities should increase. Fantasy managers should remain confident, Carlson is still a strong candidate to finish as a top-10 kicker in 2025.

Daniel Carlson Nails Four Field Goals In Road Win

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson went 4-for-4 on field goals and also converted his lone extra-point attempt during Sunday's Week 17 win over the New Orleans Saints. His field goals came from 25, 31, 39, and 54 yards out. Carlson has now made four-plus field goals in 25 percent of his games this season, pushing him just inside the top 12 kickers (based on fantasy points) so far. Although his fantasy production has been relatively inconsistent due to the Raiders' developing offense, Carlson remains an intriguing weekly streamer with very high upside. He should continue to be viewed as a fringe top-12 kicking option in fantasy football ahead of Week 18 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
