Viewers tuning in to the Giants-Cowboys Thanksgiving Dday game at AT&T Stadium were taken back to the late 2000s with a popular boy band making a reappearance in the halftime show.

The Jonas Brothers took to the field in Arlington not long after wrapping up their second residency in Las Vegas as they prepare for the release of a sixth studio album in 2023.

For the halftime show, they only performed new music, putting together a medley of "Only Human," "What a Man Got to Do," "Leave Before You Love Me" and "Sucker." They did not perform anything prior to their 2019 reunion.

Plenty of viewers were excited to see the band performing.

Still, there was some disappointment over the lack of the classics.
