The Dallas Cowboys caught the Minnesota Vikings sleeping, all thanks to Brandon Aubrey. Early in a tense Week 15 matchup, Dallas special teams coordinator John Fassel reached deep into the bag, and kicker Aubrey delivered one of the most unexpected moments of the game.
Lined up for what looked like a routine field goal attempt, Aubrey took the snap, tucked the ball, and took off. The Vikings never saw it coming.

Aubrey sprinted through the right side of the line and picked up the first down with ease, keeping a crucial Cowboys drive alive and flipping momentum in Dallas’ favor. The fake worked to perfection.
It was a bold call, especially in a game with playoff implications. Minnesota sold out to block the kick, leaving a wide-open lane once Aubrey committed to the run. By the time the Vikings reacted, it was too late.
