Daniel Carlson Accurate But Risky In Fantasy In Week 12
6 hours agoLas Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson has now hit on 18 of his 20 field goals this season. He's a perfect 15-for-15 on his extra points. On many teams, he'd be an elite K option in fantasy, like the 2020, 2021, and 2022 Raiders. Not so this season. He's the 17th ranked player at his position because the offense hasn't played very well. There's plenty of turmoil on that side of the ball, and LV has dealt with poor play from its quarterbacks and running backs. In addition, the team's top-2 RBs, Zamir White (quad) and Alexander Mattison (ankle) are both listed as "Doubtful" on the team's injury report. A depleted backfield won't help against a tough Denver Broncos defense. There's a lot of uncertainty here, so it's better to look elsewhere for placekicker options for your fantasy teams.
