HENDERSON, Nev. -- Las Vegas Raiders placekicker Daniel Carlson, who was tied for the NFL lead in scoring last season with 144 points, has agreed to a four-year contract extension, his agent tweeted Wednesday.
The deal is worth $18.4 million, with $10.2 million guaranteed, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. It makes Carlson the league's third-highest-paid kicker.
Raiders punter AJ Cole also received a four-year extension Wednesday that will make him one of the league's top-four-paid punters, his agent told NFL Network. Cole is leading the NFL with a 51.1 yards-per-punt average.
