Dak Prescott teases Brandon Aubrey for missed field goal in Cowboys vs. win Giants

Vaseline 1 week ago

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey can make a mistake after all.

Aubrey, who joined the Cowboys Thursday night football game against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium, a perfect 10-for-10 on field goal attempts this season, missing a kick for the first time in 2024 on a 51-yard attempt in the final minute of Dallas’s 20–15 win.

The kick went just wide to the right, marking just the third missed kick of Aubrey’s NFL career and his first misfire from more than 50 yards.

After the game, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had some fun at the expense of his teammate on the Amazon Prime Video postgameshow.

“He’s special; he’s a great talent. I think that (last one) was too short for him,” Prescott said. β€œHe just wanted to give them a bit of a cinematic ending.”

Aubrey’s miss played no role in the game’s final outcome, as Giants quarterback Daniel Jones threw an interception with five seconds to play to secure Dallas’ second win of the year.

Aubrey split the uprights on two field goal attempts earlier in the game: a 60-yard field goal in the third quarter and a 40-yard field goal in the fourth. His career field goal percentage stands at 92.7% (38 of 41) heading into the Cowboys’ Week 5 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

β€œHe’s a special man,” Prescott said. “Every quarterback has a really, really good kicker if you look at their history. I’m so blessed to have him. He can make it from anywhere – I call that a fluke.”

Aubrey wasn’t the only kicker who had a solid game on Thursday. Giants kicker Greg Joseph hit all five of his field goal attempts from 22, 38, 41, 42 and 52 yards.
