Brandon Aubrey's record-breaking extension with Cowboys already gets matched by AFC kicker

"Steelers have agreed to terms with K Chris Boswell on a four-year, $28 million extension. The $7 million average per year ties him with Brandon Aubrey for highest paid kicker in NFL history, per CAA Football. Boswell is now locked in with the Steelers through the  2030 season," Schefter reported.

Boswell has been the Steelers' kicker since 2015 and has been getting better and better with age. The 35-year-old earned a first-team All-Pro nod in 2024 by leading the NFL in field goals made (41) with as 93.2% field goals made rate.

In 2025, Boswell hit 84.4% of his field goals (27/32), and was 9 of 11 from 50 plus yards.

Boswell and Aubrey are two of the best kickers in the sport, so it makes sense that they are tied for the highest paid at the position. With Aubrey being a bit younger than Boswell at 31, we could see him cash in once again on a massive contract, depending on whether he can keep up his stellar play.
