Cowboys' Aubrey Tests Free Agency

0:00It's March 5th, here's your NFL news in two minutes, subscribe to stay locked in all season. Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey is hitting restricted free agency and testing the market for better offers. At 30 years old he's been an all pro performer, but the Cowboys hold the power to match any deal from other teams and keep him around. To play it safe, Dallas slapped a second round tender on Aubrey. That means any team wanting him would have to hand over their second round draft pick, making it tough for rivals to swoop in. Aubrey earned around $900,000 a year in his first three seasons. Now, as a former soccer player turned NFL standout, he's wisely shopping for a bigger payday to support his family. The Cowboys are pushing hard to resign him long term, but negotiations carry some risk if talk stall. Losing him would hurt their special teams big time. Free agency opens March 11th, leaving Dallas about a week to wrap things up before Aubrey can chat with opponents. We'll see if they lock him down or face a matching decision.
