Dallas Cowboys star Brandon Aubrey breaks his silence after hitting a cheerleader in the head

Dallas kicker Brandon Aubrey has apologized to the Cowboys cheerleader he hit with a kick during Sunday’s game against Washington.

Michelle Siemienowski was hit in the back of the head during the Cowboys’ regular-season finale at AT&T Stadium.

Aubrey made a 34-yard field goal before returning to the field to take a kickoff. But unfortunately Aubrey’s kick went off the field towards Siemienowski.

The cheerleader, part of ‘America’s Sweethearts’, performed with her back to the field and did not see the ball coming. She fell to the ground and the people around her immediately stopped their routine.

After the incident, Aubrey reportedly visited Siemienowski before leaving her a message on the roster to apologize.

“Michelle, I’m so sorry I KO’d you!” Aubrey wrote. ‘I hope you’re doing well! I enjoy watching you!’

Siemienowski posted a photo of Aubrey’s apology on social media, alongside her own post about the incident.

‘The last 24 hours have been a whirlwind! I’ve received a lot of messages and I want to thank you all for checking in and for your kind words! I’m fine, so don’t worry!’

‘Also… thank you @baubs10 for this apology note! I was told that he wanted to come and see me on the field after the incident, but unfortunately I kept moving around the field.

‘He was kind enough to write me a note anyway! No hard feelings here! And now I have a souvenir for my last game of my rookie season!’

“Congratulations on breaking a franchise record!” she added, after Aubrey made 37 field goals in the 2024 season. He held the previous Cowboys record — 36 — from the 2023 season.
