Aubrey

We’re willing to go out on a limb and guess that Aubrey will likely find time to go through his normal kicking routine at some point throughout the week to be ready for Week 8’s game against the 49ers. It doesn’t sound like he’ll be at any risk of missing the game based on McCarthy’s comments, so fantasy managers don’t need to rush to add a replacement at this time.

It’s both incredible that Aubrey is missing practice for this reason and shocking that this isn’t more common. Aubrey’s status for Week 8 is unclear as he tends to his civic duties. The Cowboys don’t have another kicker on their roster, meaning they will need to sign a replacement if Aubrey is unable to play on Sunday, though that seems extremely unlikely.
