Listen to Fox News Articles Now! Discover the Incredible Journey of Dallas Cowboys Kicker Brandon Aubrey
In the world of the NFL, having a dependable kicker is a true luxury—just ask the New York Giants. Recently, the Dallas Cowboys unearthed a remarkable talent in Brandon Aubrey, a third-year NFL player who made history during the team’s impressive victory over the Washington Commanders.
Record-Breaking Performance on October 19, 2025
During the game at AT&T Stadium, Aubrey celebrated a significant milestone by successfully kicking a 61-yard field goal in the second quarter, contributing to the Cowboys’ 44-22 triumph. This impressive kick marked the fifth time in his career that Aubrey has converted a field goal from at least 60 yards, making him the first kicker in NFL history to achieve this remarkable feat, as reported by CBS Sports.
Aubrey expressed his thoughts on the achievement, saying, "It’s going to be a living record with kickers getting better every year. It’s going to be tough to hold on to that one with just five. It feels good.” He added, "I feel like I’ve set myself apart with a particular set of skills that are hard to replicate, so I just want to keep showcasing that every week."
Aubrey’s Impressive Season
This season, Aubrey has maintained a perfect record, successfully converting all 15 of his field goal attempts. The Cowboys signed him before the start of the 2023 season after he gained recognition in the USFL with the Birmingham Stallions, where he earned a first-team All-Pro selection in 2023.
Interestingly, Aubrey’s journey to the NFL is unique. He attended Notre Dame, where he initially excelled as a soccer player rather than a football player. Before making his mark in American football, he played for Toronto FC and Bethlehem Steel FC in the United Soccer League.
The Rise of a Reliable Kicker
Now, Aubrey stands as one of the NFL’s most reliable kickers, and his long-range accuracy is prompting other teams to reassess their kicking strategies. As he continues to impress fans and analysts alike, the Dallas Cowboys can be proud of their decision to bring him onboard.
