Overview
- Citing a talkSPORT interview published Monday, Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey said Harry Kane has the technical striking ability needed to convert to an NFL placekicker.
- Aubrey signed a record $28 million contract with the Cowboys, a deal that illustrates the strong financial reward available to successful NFL kickers.
- Kane has previously expressed interest in trying NFL kicking but is currently focused on captaining England at the 2026 World Cup and is in talks over a Bayern Munich contract that runs to 2027.
- Aubrey warned that Kane’s age—he turns 33 in July—could be a barrier because NFL teams typically favour younger kickers who can start long-term roles.
- Police confirmed that two people of interest were detained after a team vehicle was targeted in Missouri and that Kane’s custom boots were reportedly stolen, an off-field incident that has not changed his World Cup preparations.
