Summary
- Cheerleader was cut in 2024 due to health concerns.
- She found gratitude in the rejection for body healing.
- She successfully rejoined the squad for the 2025 season.

Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Jenna Waller, 27, revealed her profound gratitude for being cut from the squad in 2024. The experience, which initially felt like the "lowest low," provided a crucial opportunity for her to focus on her health and well-being.
Waller recalled struggles with restrictive eating and body image during training camp, influenced by comments from others and social media pressures. She recognized that her previous state was not conducive to performing powerfully on the field.
With the support of therapy, Waller worked on healing her body and mind over the past year. This period allowed her to reach a place of self-acceptance and confidence.
Her successful return to the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders for the 2025 season is documented in the new Netflix series "America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders."
