Aubrey's 127 Made Field Goals Define Dallas Kicker's Pro Bowl Era

Brandon Aubrey has made 127 of his 146 field goal attempts in his first three seasons with the Dallas Cowboys. The 31-year-old kicker has also converted 146 of 151 extra points. His longest successful kick measures 65 yards. These statistics have secured his spot in the Pro Bowl for three consecutive years.

Aubrey is now entering his fourth season with Dallas. His path to the NFL was not direct. He first played professional soccer in Major League Soccer. He then moved to the United Soccer League. He was released from rosters multiple times during that period.

"I wasn't ready to retire from soccer, but when I looked around at the environment, I didn't perform as well as I needed to stick on a roster and I got cut a couple of times," Aubrey told OutKick in a recent interview. "And at that point, there wasn't a whole lot of money in soccer at the second tier. So, I slipped from the MLS into the USL."

After leaving soccer, Aubrey took a position as a software engineer. He earned a degree in that field. He stated that he could have made triple the income he earned in the USL with that job. He made the career switch shortly after marrying his wife, Jenn. He did not want to set his new family back financially.

Jenn held a stable job and encouraged Aubrey to pursue football. Aubrey accepted a position with the USFL. He eventually drew attention from NFL scouts. He secured a contract with the Cowboys.

One specific game defines his tenure with Dallas. In Week 2 of the 2025 season, the New York Giants held a 37-34 lead. There were 25 seconds remaining in regulation. Aubrey noted that the Giants scored a long touchdown to Wan'Dale Robinson. Robinson performed a night-night celebration after the score.

"We had like 12 seconds to go get 10 yards, got it and then we were in field-goal position and that's still a pretty coin-flippy field goal, maybe even less than a coin flip for historical statistics," Aubrey said. He attempted a 64-yard kick. He made the kick to force the game into overtime.

Aubrey did not stop there. As the clock expired in overtime, he made a 46-yard field goal. The kick gave the Cowboys a 40-37 victory. That win prevented Dallas from starting the season 0-2.

Aubrey also discussed his physical appearance in the interview. He spoke on behalf of Invisalign. He credited clear liners for restoring his confidence. He said he invested time in his smile as a child but allowed it to shift as a college athlete and young adult.

"If you smile, I think that shows a lot of your personality," Aubrey said. "I guess I could say my parents put that time and effort into it and it was in a good spot and then shift happens. I didn't take good enough care of it as a college athlete and a young adult and my smile shifted as well. I think Invisalign clear liners are a fantastic fit for me as I try to invest in my smile, my overall health, my confidence. You look good, you feel good, you play good."
