The best of both worlds: Why Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey is now the best in the NFL

It wasn’t that long ago when the Dallas Cowboys had what some might call (using your Matt Foley voice) a “kicking problem.” For years we were spoiled by the great accuracy of Dan Bailey, but then things got a little shaky toward the end of his career. In a shocking final roster cut move back in 2018, the Cowboys replaced Bailey with a 29-year-old rookie named Brett Maher. The team’s new kicker was known for having a big leg and during his time in Dallas. He set new franchise records for the longest (63 yards), second-longest (62 yards, twice), and third-longest (60 yards) in team history.
