Amid controversy over Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance — Saints icon Drew Brees steps up to defend him, changing the narrative. ⚜️🔥New Orleans, October 6, 2025 The NFL community erupted in debate after a portion of fans and analysts claimed that inviting global superstar Bad Bunny to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show was a “mistake.” Many argued that the world’s biggest stage should feature artists who represent “traditional American football culture.” But amid the noise, Steve Gleason — the New Orleans Saints legend and a symbol of resilience for the city after Hurricane Katrina — broke his silence and defended Bad Bunny, delivering words that instantly resonated across the football world. In a heartfelt post shared on social media, Gleason wrote: “The Super Bowl isn’t just a football game — it’s a global celebration of culture. Having Bad Bunny perform is not a mistake; it’s proof of how sports, music, and emotion can connect people. The NFL is opening its heart, and that’s a beautiful thing.” He continued: “I’ve seen New Orleans rise from devastation through the power of community and music. If Bad Bunny can bring that same energy to the Super Bowl stage, let him do it. Music can heal and inspire — just like football has done for all of us.” Gleason’s thoughtful remarks spread rapidly across social media, with fans and journalists alike praising him as “a voice of compassion and progress.” Even some who initially criticized the decision admitted that Gleason had captured the heart of the issue. Known for his courage and unbreakable spirit, Steve Gleason once again proved that his influence extends far beyond the field. This time, he made the world listen — not with a blocked punt, but with a message of empathy, unity, and understanding. ⚜️ “The Super Bowl isn’t just about football — it’s where we celebrate the power of humanity, whether through touchdowns or through music.”
