The Dallas Cowboys have to be happy their season is over … but, there was one more embrassing moment their team had to endure — ’cause their kicker smashed a ball and hit one of their cheerleaders in the head.
During a second quarter kickoff, Brandon Aubrey — Dallas’ usually sure-footed kicker — kicked a ball that sailed out of bounds … already a penalty, which was bad enough.
But, it gets worse … ’cause the ball careened 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 hurry to her check on her.
The broadcast slowed down the footage too … and, it appears a cameraman on the sideline actually got a hand on the ball — unclear if he accidentally diverted the ball into the cheerleader’s head or if it would’ve hit her regardless.
Thankfully, it looks like she recovered just fine from the hit … smiling, laughing and waving off help from the concerned parties around her.
It’s another gaffe in a season full of them for the Cowboys … who finished the season 7-10 after dropping today’s game 23-19 to the Washington Commanders.
“We f****** suck.” 😬

Dallas is missing out on 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 … caught on live TV in November saying, “”We f*****g suck.”
Welp, at least this season’s in the rearview … though one cheerleader may be feeling a little banged up from the year tomorrow!
