WATCH: Preseason field goal matches longest in NFL history

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey continued the impressive start of his NFL career with a 66-yard field goal Saturday night during a 27-12 victory against the Las Vegas Raiders.

The kick would have placed him in the NFL record book, tying him with the Baltimore Ravens’ Justin Tucker, if it hadn’t taken place in a preseason game. Tucker’s 2021 kick was in the regular season. It bounced off the crossbar and went over. Aubrey’s kick had room to spare.

Aubrey’s kick Saturday came as time expired in the first half to give the Cowboys a 13-6 lead.

He had kicked a 54-yarder earlier in the game.

Aubrey, 29, already is in the record book by starting his NFL career last season with 35 consecutive made field goals. He finished 36-for-38 last season, with a long kick of 60 yards, after the Cowboys signed the former Notre Dame kicker out of the United States Football League.
