After going 3-for-3 on his field goal attempts, 2-for-2 on extra points, and hitting the game-winning 35-yard field goal, Oakland Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson was announced the Week 11 AFC Special Teams Player of the Week.

Carlson was good from 49, 21, and 35 yards, and was responsible for all of the Raiders points in the second half of their 23-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.

Carlson had a rough start to the season after being cut by the Minnesota Vikings after missing three field goals against the Green Bay Packers. The Raiders signed Carlson in Week 8 and with the Raiders, Carlson is 6-for-7 on field goals and hasn’t missed an extra point.
