Aubrey connected on a 52-yard field-goal attempt and converted four of five extra point attempts in a 45-10 rout of the Commanders on Thursday.
The rookie kicker has missed PATs in back-to-back games and has shanked three in total on 36 attempts through 11 games, but Aubrey remains perfect on FGs, extending his NFL record to begin a career to 22 straight makes. With the Cowboys' offense firing on all cylinders, however, he's seen fewer field goals in recent weeks, limiting his fantasy ceiling heading into the Week 13 meeting with a Seattle team that's given up 22.6 points a game, 22nd in the league.

Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Only needed for PATs
Rotowire
Aubrey connected on all seven of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 49-17 rout of the Giants.
The rookie kicker has now converted an incredible 45 straight attempts including both PATs and field goals, with his only career miss coming on his very first extra-point attempt back in Week 1. The Cowboys' offensive efficiency against an overmatched Giants team Sunday prevented Aubrey from really cashing in from a fantasy perspective, however, and he's only seen three FG attempts total over the last three games -- although he does have 14 PATs over that span. That makes him a better floor option than ceiling play heading into a Week 11 clash with the Panthers.

Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Sets new NFL record
Rotowire
Aubrey successfully converted one field-goal attempt and two extra-point attempts in Sunday's loss to the Eagles.
While he didn't see a lot of volume, Aubrey's 51-yard kick straight down the middle of the uprights late in the second quarter not only gave Dallas a 17-14 lead, it set a new NFL record -- the rookie kicker has begun his career with 19 straight successful field goals, breaking the old mark of 18 set by Travis Coons in 2015. Aubrey's also missed only one of his PAT attempts this season, and he'll look to keep rolling in Week 10 against the Giants.

Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Limited opportunities in loss
Rotowire
Aubrey converted his only extra-point attempt and a 50-yard field goal in Sunday's loss to the 49ers.
The rookie kicker was once again perfect, but the struggles of the Dallas offense in San Francisco gave him few opportunities to showcase his skills. Aubrey has drilled 14 straight FG attempts to begin his NFL career and 10 straight PATs after missing his very first one, and he figures to be a lot busier in Week 6 against the Chargers.

Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Perfect run continues
Rotowire
Aubrey connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and all three of his PATs in Sunday's 38-3 rout of the Patriots.
Since missing his very first attempt in the NFL, an extra point in the first quarter back in Week 1, Aubrey has been perfect. The former USFL kicker has drilled 13 straight FGs and nine straight PATs, and the Cowboys' penchant for generating points on defense as well as offense has kept Aubrey plenty busy. he may need to cash in every opportunity he gets in Week 5, in what should be a much more competitive contest against the undefeated 49ers.

Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Kicker to Start
Rotowire
Aubrey should be viewed as a No. 1 Fantasy kicker in Week 3 at Arizona and likely for the rest of the season. He's made seven field goals through the first two games, along with five extra points, and the Cowboys should continue to give him plenty of scoring chances on a weekly basis. The Cardinals shouldn't slow down the Dallas offense, and Aubrey has top-five upside in this matchup on the road.

Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Misses extra point against Jags
Rotowire
Aubrey connected on his only field-goal attempt and converted two of three extra-point attempts in Saturday's preseason loss to the Jaguars.
The former USFL player is the only kicker currently in camp for the Cowboys, but Aubrey didn't build up any job security with his missed PAT in his first preseason action with the team. It still remains likely that Dallas will bring in competition for the 28-year-old before Week 1.

Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Lone kicker left
Rotowire
Aubrey went 7-for-9 on field-goal attempts Monday in his first practice since the Cowboys waived Tristan Vizcaino, Saad Yousef of The Athletic reports.
"We're comfortable [at kicker]," owner/GM Jerry Jones said after the practice. "We're excited about what we've seen. We're excited about how he got here. He's having a real solid camp. We're very comfortable going into the season with him." Despite Jones' endorsement, Aubrey's performance so far in training camp hasn't been so good that the team is closing the door on adding competition for the rookie. "The option of a veteran kicker, that's still a possibility," coach Mike McCarthy said. Aubrey could wind up being a productive fantasy asset riding shotgun for a potent Dallas offense if he does begin the season with the kicking job, but until the former USFL player proves himself in the NFL, he'll be a risky option.
