Cowboys Offer Aubrey $7.5M/Year

The Dallas Cowboys have offered kicker Brandon Aubrey a contract worth close to $7.5 million per season, but he's seeking approximately $10 million to reset the kicker market.

The Cowboys' offer would make Aubrey the NFL's highest-paid kicker, surpassing Harrison Butker's current $6.4 million annual salary. Aubrey has leverage as one of the league's most reliable long-distance kickers, with six career 60-yard field goals, the most in NFL history.

Named All-Pro in each of his three seasons, Aubrey is a restricted free agent. If negotiations fail, the Cowboys may place a second-round tender on him valued at roughly $5.8 million. Executive vice president Stephen Jones called the ongoing talks a 'journey' that began before last season.
