Overview
- On Katie Miller's podcast, Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Charlotte Jones called the Bad Bunny selection "awesome" and emphasized the NFL's global reach and Latino fan base.
- Jones argued the Super Bowl should steer clear of politics and framed the halftime performance as a chance to bring people together.
- NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell reaffirmed there are no plans to replace the headliner and said the decision was carefully considered.
- Conservative pushback persisted, with Brett Favre voicing preference for a more overtly patriotic act and Turning Point USA promoting an alternative "All‑American Halftime Show."
- Reports clarified that Bad Bunny is a U.S. citizen from Puerto Rico and that circulating claims of teams pressing for a replacement have no formal confirmation.
