Jerry Jones' Cowboys Face Aubrey Dilemma

0:00On March 5, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has fans buzzing after hinting the team will splash more cash in free agency than ever before. But one key player holding things up is Star Kicker, Brandon Aubrey, who's pushing for a bigger long-term deal as a restricted free agent. Aubrey's coming off a stellar run, with three pro bull nods, one all pro honor, and an NFL record of six field goals from 60 yards or longer. At 30 years old, he's got one of the league's strongest legs, and right now, he's on a second round tender, worth about 5.81 million. Dollars for the 2026 season. Aubrey sounds frustrated that talks haven't wrapped up yet, stressing the need to test the open market to do right by himself and his family. The Cowboys have countered with an offer, averaging under $7 million a year, while his side wants around 10 million per season. Legal tampering kicks off March 9th and noon eastern time, when other teams can pitch deals. Dallas can match any offer, or if they pass, they get a second round draft pick in return.

1:02History shows the Cowboys rarely let talents like Aubrey slip away, so expect a resolution soon that keeps their record leg in silver and blue.
