This year’s Christmas Day matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans will have some top-tier entertainment.

Beyoncé, a 32-time Grammy Award winner, is a Houston native, so she’ll get the chance to perform in front of a home crowd. It won’t be the first time Beyoncé has performed at an NFL game.
She headlined the halftime show at Super Bowl 47 in 2013 along with Destiny’s Child members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams before returning to the Super Bowl stage in 2016 for Super Bowl 50 alongside Coldplay and Bruno Mars.
The meeting between the Texans and Ravens should be an exciting one. Houston currently sits at 6-4 on the year and has an in-state matchup with the Dallas Cowboys on Monday while Baltimore dropped to 7-4 on Sunday after losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Both teams seem well on their way to reaching the playoffs, meaning the Christmas Day matchup could be a preview of what’s to come in the playoffs.
The other Christmas Day game will be between the Steelers and the Kansas City Chiefs at Acrisure Stadium and will also stream live on Netflix. Whether there will be a live performance has not yet been announced.
