Brandon Aubrey is awfully good when it comes to percentages.

He’s made 94% of his regular-season field goal tries since becoming the Cowboys’ kicker in 2023. He’s a ridiculous 16-of-17 on attempts of over 50 yards in that time and has never missed from 60 or beyond. He’s nailed 95% of his PATs. The second-year man is batting 1.000 on Pro Bowls and All-Pro nods.

Now with a Thursday announcement by the league, of his five months so far in the NFL, he’s been named NFC Special Teams Player of the Month an absurd three times.

That’s 60% of the the time he’s been in the league.

Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold won the award for offense, while Detroit’s Aidan Hutchinson earned defensive honors.

Aubrey was awarded the prize for September after a month that saw him boot 12 field goals in 13 tries and included both a 60- and a 65-yarder, making him one of just four men to ever kick three or more field goals from 60 yards or longer in a career.

And Aubrey’s attempted just 51 field goal attempts total in an NFL career that’s only 21 games old so far.

He won the conference’s Special Teams Player of the Month award last October and December, making him the first Cowboys special-teamer to ever win that award twice.

Now he’s got a third… out of a possible five.
