Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones apparently knows what he has in kicker Brandon Aubrey.
Jones had a bird’s-eye view of Aubrey drilling a game-tying 64-yard field goal as time expired in regulation and the winning 46-yard kick in overtime of the Cowboys’ 40-37 victory over the New York Giants on Sunday.
With Aubrey playing in the final season of his three-year, $2.695 million contract, Jones was asked on 105.3 The Fan on Tuesday if the team is working to sign the kicker to a contract extension.
“Well, he certainly is coming,” Jones said of the potential extension. “We’ll be looking at that, probably have had communications since the kick. He’s certainly in the future.”
Aubrey, 30, has made all three field-goal attempts this season and all six extra-point tries to boot.
A two-time Pro Bowl selection, Aubrey has drilled 82 of 91 field-goal attempts and 85 of 88 PATs in 36 career games with the Cowboys.
