Dak Prescott teases Brandon Aubrey about missed field goal in Cowboys win over Giants

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey is certainly capable of making a mistake.

Aubrey, who entered the Cowboys Thursday Night Football In the match against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium, he went a perfect 10-10 on field goal attempts this season and missed a kick for the first time in 2024 on a 51-yard attempt in the final minute of the 20-15 win Dallas.

The kick missed just wide right, marking only the third missed kick of Aubrey’s NFL career and his first miss from over 50 yards.

After the game, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had a little fun at his teammate’s expense Amazon Prime Video Postgame show.

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

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

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

“He’s a special guy,” Prescott said. “Every quarterback has a really, really good kicker if you look at history. I am so blessed to have him. He can do it from anywhere – I call it a coincidence.”

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