In under 3 seasons of play, is Aubrey already the best ever?

In the 65-plus seasons of Dallas Cowboys football, there have been 40 players that have attempted a field goal in a regular season contest.

In just 36 games, Brandon Aubrey has already staked his claim on being the best kicker in the NFL. He’s well on his way to being the best-ever in Cowboys’ history.

And he’s only in his third season.

Nor is he kicking a lot of them from point-blank range.

Aubrey has nailed four kicks of 60 yards or more in the regular season. He hit one from 66 yards in a preseason game.

The way he’s been kicking he’d better be Jerry Jones’ next contract extension on the list.

Cowboys Greatest Kickers

Dan Bailey remains Dallas’ all-time leader in field goals made with 186 in 108 games. Aubrey has 82 made field goals in 36 games.

Rafael Septien is the only kicker between them at 162 in 137 games.

Aubrey’s 64-yarder to send Sunday’s game into overtime had tied him for third with Chris Boniol (48 games) at 81 made before taking sole possession with the overtime winner.

Aubrey’s made percentage stands at 90.1%, ahead of Bailey’s 88.2% and far better than Septien’s 71.7%. Boniol finished at 87.1%

Only Kai Forbath has a higher percentage, having converted all 10 of his attempts over a three-game stretch in 2019.

Aubrey’s accuracy is not impacted by his length. He has hit 27-of-30 of his field goals (90%) from 50 yards or more.

His 27 makes from beyond 50 tied Bailey for the most made in franchise history.

Bailey was 27-of-40 (67.5%) in Dallas from beyond 50 yards.
