Standout Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson is active for Monday night’s game at the Detroit Lions.
Carlson was listed as questionable on the Raiders’ injury report Saturday. He practiced on a limited basis Saturday after missing the first two practices of the week. He worked out Monday in pre-game warm ups and felt he could play.
Carlson suffered a groin injury in warm ups prior to the loss at the Chicago Bears on Sunday, but he did play. Kicker James McCourt was elevated from to the practice squad to take Carlson’s place in the game if need be.
