The Dallas Cowboys and the agent for Pro-Bowl kicker Brandon Aubrey are in agreement that he should be the NFL’s highest-paid player at his position, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. While both parties agree on Aubrey's status as the league's premier kicker, the current disagreement lies in the specific financial figures of the potential deal.
Reporting via Todd Archer indicates that while the framework for a record-breaking extension is being discussed, the two sides have yet to settle on the exact dollar amount that would set the new market standard. Aubrey has emerged as a cornerstone for the Cowboys special teams unit following a record-setting debut season where he established himself as one of the most accurate legs in professional football.
The 29-year-old kicker earned Pro Bowl and First-Team All-Pro honors in 2023, showcasing elite range and consistency. By seeking the highest-paid status, Aubrey aims to surpass the current salary benchmarks at the position. The Dallas Cowboys front office continues to navigate several high-profile contract negotiations, with Aubrey now firmly at the forefront of those discussions as the team looks to secure its specialist long-term.
