NFL players! They’re just like us!
Daniel Carlson, the kicker for the Las Vegas Raiders, apparently plays fantasy football. Although I’ve made a case for no kickers in fantasy, his league has them (I would hope a kicker would play in a league with kickers!).
And last week, after he booted four field goals (including three between 40 and 49 yards) and two extra points, he revealed that his opponent in fantasy had Daniel Carlson on the roster.
So, the real Carlson lost his fantasy matchup. But, hey, at least he won a real-life game, which is much more important.
Still, this is hilarious.
This is awesome: @Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson made 4 field goals in Week 2 and won AFC Special Teams Player of the Week.
The bad news? He was playing against himself in fantasy and contributed to his own loss 🤣pic.twitter.com/IcSBFc9k79
