Post Malone sparks debate after wearing Brandon Aubrey's jersey at Cowboys concert
Post Malone wears Brandon Aubrey's jersey, surprising Cowboys fans at AT&T Stadium (Image via: X) When Post Malone returned to his hometown stage at AT&T Stadium, fans expected fireworks and they got them. But it wasn't just his performance alongside Jelly Roll that had Cowboys Nation buzzing. It was his jersey. Not a tribute to quarterback Dak Prescott. Not a salute to CeeDee Lamb or any of the Cowboys' iconic legends. Instead, Post Malone rocked a No. 17 Brandon Aubrey jersey, a move that lit up social media and split fan opinions in seconds. Operation Sindoor 'Common sense prevailed': Trump on India-Pak ceasefire on Truth Social 'Pakistan initiated call; both nations agreed to stop military action after direct talks', says India Ceasefire took effect at 5pm; top India, Pak military officials to talk again on May 12 Post Malone turns heads by elevating Dallas' silent star For most, Brandon Aubrey isn't the name you plaster on posters or wear on stage in front of 80,000 screaming fans. But for Post Malone, a lifelong Cowboys loyalist whose father worked concessions for the team, this wasn't just a fashion choice. It was a statement. Aubrey, 30, has quietly become one of the most consistent and clutch players on the Cowboys' roster. In 2024 alone, he went 40-for-47 on field goals, including a jaw-dropping 14-of-17 from beyond 50 yards. A monster 65-yarder that had fans and analysts alike raising their eyebrows. Some see it as trolling, picking the least expected player for shock value. But those who've followed Post Malone's relationship with the Cowboys know better. This is about respect. About valuing precision, consistency, and game-changing performances regardless of position or popularity. Post Malone elevates the underdog in a league obsessed with Stars The move is especially notable because music-meets-sports moments usually highlight star players, not specialists. In a league where quarterbacks dominate headlines and wide receivers rake in endorsement deals, a spotlight on someone like Aubrey feels almost rebellious. It's a deviation from the NFL's glamour playbook, a reminder that impact isn't always loud or flashy. And maybe that's the point. Also Read: Jets' Mason Taylor set to shine beyond the shadow of NFL legends Jason Taylor and Zach Thomas Post Malone has never been one to follow the crowd. From face tattoos to genre-bending albums, he's made a career out of zigging where others zag. This jersey choice fits that mold perfectly subtle yet subversive and it's forcing Cowboys fans to take a second look at what greatness really looks like. After all, in a team sport, even the quietest contributions can define legacies.

Brandon Aubrey in line for an extension with Cowboys
Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey has become the best player at his position in the NFL. In two seasons, he has made two Pro Bowls and was first-team All-Pro and second-team All-Pro. Aubrey has made 89.4 percent of his field goals, including 24-of-27 from 50 yards or longer with a long of 65. Entering the final year of a three-year contract, Aubrey is in line for a record-setting extension for his position. Three kickers have contracts that average at least $6 million a season, with Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker's $6.4 million average at the top. Aubrey hired agent Todd France, who also is Dak Prescott's agent, a year ago. 'I'm eligible for an extension so it's up to my agent to go up to the Cowboys and see if there's any interest in signing it there early,' Aubrey said Tuesday, via Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. 'If an extension comes, then an extension comes. If not, I'm still making ten times what I was making working code [prior to football], so I'm pretty happy.'
