Just For Kicks: Carlson, Cole must stay tip top in 2022

When the Las Vegas Raiders needed it most, a DC rose to the occasion all 2021 season long. Quarterback Derek Carr helped engineer the drives to get the Silver & Black in range. And it was kicker Daniel Carlson drilling the field goal to send Raider Nation into frenzied jubilation.

A clutch quarterback and place kicker that excel in crunch time and aren’t the least bit bothered by the immense pressure. Two tremendous assets any football team would be fortunate to have. Yet, Carlson’s presence, along with special teams battery mates punter A.J. Cole III and long snapper Trent Sieg stress just how vital that trio can be.
