When @dallascowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey hit the crossbar twice in one game in 2023 😳 https://t.co/MEUcuz6T7O Via @NFL on X

What happened: The league's account resurfaced a 2023 clip of Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey hitting the crossbar twice in a single game. The post is a throwback to the moment, not a new development, and it drew reactions calling the sequence "nightmare fuel." No current game or kick is involved.

Why it matters: The clip is being recirculated because Aubrey, an undrafted former pro soccer player, became one of the league's most accurate kickers after that rookie season, which makes the early double-crossbar oddity stand out in hindsight. Resurfaced moments like this typically gain traction during the offseason lull, when there is little live football news.

What to watch: Watch whether Aubrey carries his accuracy into the upcoming 2026 season with the Cowboys as the team sets its roster in the offseason.
