Cowboys, Packers Battle for Kicker Aubrey

0:00On March 5th, the Dallas Cowboys are in the thick of contract talks with their starkicker, Brandon Aubrey, as free agency looms, since joining the team in 2023. The three-time pro-buller has nailed 112 of 127 field goals, including an impressive 35 from 50 yards or longer. Free agency kicks off next Wednesday, and the Cowboys plan to slap a second-round tender on Aubrey. That would lock him in for $5.81 million in the 2026 season if he plays it out. Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers have gotten in touch with Aubrey's representatives, with talks starting back at the NFL Scouting Combine. Aubrey already has an offer on the table that could topple Kansas City Chiefskicker, Harrison Butcher, as the league's highest paid at the position, where Butcher pulls in $6.4 million a year. His camp is pushing for a long-term deal averaging $10 million annually. while $10 million for a kicker might give the Cowboys paws, a middle-ground around $8 million could seal the deal and keep Aubrey kicking in Dallas
