Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey knew immediately that he caught the ball well off his right foot. Aubrey's 66-yard field goal in the Cowboys' 27-12 preseason win against the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday night would have equaled the NFL record set by Justin Tucker of the Baltimore Ravens on 2021. "Just kind of feels like nothing's quite there," Aubrey said. "Got a little bounce off of your foot, that it sticks onto your foot for like a fraction of a second and then it goes. It kind of shoots off, jumps off your foot. And you know right off the bat it was a good, clean hit." In last week's preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium, Aubrey's 65-yard attempt was wide and potentially a little short. After the game, coach Mike McCarthy contemplated giving Aubrey a chance at a 72-yarder earlier in the drive but said, "Bones wasn't feeling it," referring to special teams coordinator John Fassel.
