Defense and offensive linemen...this week's edition of Irish in the NFL wouldn't be complete without at least some scoring, right? So, let's talk about one of the league's highest-scoring players.
Well, sort of.
By his own standards, Aubrey had a pretty quiet Week 8, making 3 extra-point kicks plus a 24-yard field goal in the Cowboys' 44-24 loss to the Broncos.
But people were on the edge of their seats all game long, hoping Aubrey would attempt a record-long field goal try in Denver's thinner altitude.
Important: this might be the only game we get for Brandon Aubrey in Denver's altitude during his career. We need a 75-yard field goal attempt in this game.

While Aubrey didn't try a record-setting kick, the Pro Football Hall of Fame did announce that his cleat from his 61-yard make back on Oct. 19 would be included in the Hall's collection.
Just in: The Cowboys have donated the shoe Brandon Aubrey wore to make a 61-yard field goal in their Oct. 19 win over the Washington Commanders. It was his fifth 60-plus yarder, setting an NFL record in only his third season. @Brandon_Aubrey pic.twitter.com/fb03S8Py3h

And another fun fact? Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey has scored 74 points this season, thanks to his 100% field goal percentage on 16 tries this season, alongside his 26 extra-point makes.
Those 74 points are the most by any kicker this season, and Aubrey trails only Jonathan Taylor, who's 14 TD plus a 2-point conversion are good for 86 points.
