In a stunning development, the Dallas Cowboys have officially filed a petition urging the NFL to remove Jelly Roll as the performer for the upcoming 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show. The announcement sent shockwaves across both the football and music worlds, igniting a heated national debate.
According to sources close to the team, the Cowboys’ management cited concerns that the tone of Jelly Roll’s music and recent controversies could “distract from the spirit of the game.” The request, submitted just days after the league confirmed his headlining slot, has already divided fans across social media.

Supporters of Jelly Roll argue that his rise from hardship to hope embodies the very heart of American resilience — a story worth celebrating on football’s biggest stage. Meanwhile, critics insist the show should “honor tradition” and bring in a more conventional country act.
For the NFL, the pressure is mounting as millions watch the standoff unfold. For Jelly Roll, the controversy may only fuel the passion that made him a voice for the broken — and the unstoppable force he’s become today.
