Post Malone jacket: How music star honored Marshawn Kneeland in halftime performance image

Post Malone performed at halftime of Thursday's Thanksgiving game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Dallas Cowboys, but he would never claim to be neutral.

The music star has long been a proud Cowboys fan, frequently performing in team gear and even appearing on the sidelines before games at AT&T Stadium on occasion.

On Thanksgiving, he marked the occasion by wearing a jacket emblazoned with several Cowboys buttons, including one honoring late Dallas defensive end Marshawn Kneeland.

Here's a look at Post Malone's outfit and his tribute to Kneeland.

Post Malone refused to stay neutral as the halftime performer at AT&T Stadium, wearing a jacket loaded with Cowboys-themed buttons. Two of those buttons paid tribute to No. 94, Marshawn Kneeland, who died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound earlier in November.

"We love you 94. We love you," Post Malone said to the crowd at the end of his performance.

While Kneeland's death pulled at the heartstrings of fans everywhere, Post Malone has always been a vocal supporter of the Cowboys. "Make some noise for the best team in the world," he said at the end of the show on Thursday before paying tribute to Kneeland.
