Cowboys place second-round tender on Brandon Aubrey, keeping market options open

Dallas has placed a second-round restricted free-agent tender on kicker Brandon Aubrey for the 2026 season, worth about $5.81 million. Aubrey can negotiate with other teams, but Dallas would retain the right to match any offer or receive a second-round pick as compensation if he signs elsewhere. Aubrey, a Notre Dame soccer convert, has gone 112-for-127 on field goals over three seasons, with strong 50+-yard and 60+-yard marks, and Dallas has also tendered OL T.J. Bass at about $5.8 million.
