The Las Vegas Raiders have taken a decisive step to address their struggling kicker, Daniel Carlson, by signing Greg Joseph to their practice squad. This move suggests that the team is considering a change at the position, given Carlson's recent performance issues. Carlson's woes began on Thursday night, when he missed a 48-yard field goal that could have sent the game against the Denver Broncos into overtime. This mishap came just days after he missed an extra point in a one-point overtime loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. While the pressure on Carlson is mounting, head coach Pete Carroll expressed support for his kicker, emphasizing the importance of mental clarity. "He wants to do right by his team," Carroll said. "He wants to get clear, and he's well-versed on the mentality of the preparation and practice to get his mind clear so that he can perform like he's capable.
