🚨🚨HELL OF A STORY🚨🚨

#Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey was drafted in the 1st round of the MLS draft, but he struggled and decided to stop playing soccer and use his software engineering degree.

While watching the #NFL with his wife, they witnessed a kicker miss, and Aubrey’s wife said Brandon could make that kick.

Brandon then began learning how to kick field goals and started working as an engineer during the day and practicing at night for multiple years.

After a tryout, a USFL team gave him their starting kicker job. He became a national headline for his massive leg and signed with the Cowboys.

Brandon Aubrey is now one of the best kickers in the league. Remarkable.
