The Dallas Cowboys should be happy that their season is over… but there was one more embarrassing moment their team had to endure – because their kicker smashed a ball and hit one of their cheerleaders in the head.
During the kick-off of the second quarter Brandon Aubrey — Dallas’ usually sure-footed kicker — kicked a ball that sailed out of bounds…a penalty, which was bad enough.
But it gets worse… because the ball went out of bounds and found the back of a cheerleader’s head. She falls to the ground, knocked over by the sheer force of the ball, and the people rush over to check on her.
The broadcast also delayed the footage… and it appears a cameraman on the sidelines actually had the ball in his hand – unclear if he accidentally guided the ball into the cheerleader’s head or if he hit her anyway would have hit.
Fortunately, it seems she has recovered from the blow just fine… smiling, laughing and waving help from the concerned parties around her.
It’s another blunder in a season full for the Cowboys… who finished the season 7-10 after dropping today’s game 23-19 to the Washington Commanders.
“We are fucking evil.” 😬

Dallas will miss the playoffs for the first time since the 2020-2021 season, when they went 6-10. QB Dak Prescott couldn’t even stay positive all year… captured live on television in November and said, “We suck.”
Welp, at least this season is in the rearview mirror…although a cheerleader might be feeling a little confused about the year tomorrow!
