After five seasons as the special teams coordinator with the\u00a0Dallas Cowboys, John Fassel\u00a0left to take the same role with the Tennessee Titans.<\/p>\n

During his time with Dallas, Fassel helped\u00a0unearth a couple of special teams superstars. He was the one who went to bat for\u00a0return man KaVontae Turpin\u00a0and kicker Brandon Aubrey.<\/p>\n

Both have become two-time Pro Bowlers and are in the conversation for the best at their positions.<\/p>\n

Aubrey has become especially important after knocking in 40-of-47 field goals. That\u2019s significant since\u00a0only five kickers in league history have made at least 40 field goals\u00a0in a single season.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why Fassel felt a connection to Aubrey, and called him before taking his new job. He also told Aubrey that he wanted to trade for him.<\/p>\n
