Chiefs WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling has hilarious hopes to catch Rihanna during Super Bowl halftime show

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling might have alternative plans for halftime during Super Bowl 57.

While he’ll most likely be with his Kansas City teammates preparing for the second half, Valdes-Scantling shared on Twitter that he might see if he can catch some of the halftime show performance from Rihanna.

It’s undoubtedly one of the more relatable hopes that any NFL player would have if they made the Super Bowl, especially when the performer is someone as universally beloved as Rihanna.

Going to the Super Bowl is, of course, a dream for all NFL players, but it’s also a free ticket to catch one of the biggest musical performances of the year. You can’t blame a guy for seeing if he can make both work.

If you’ll recall, Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson stayed on the field last year to watch the Super Bowl halftime show. Will Valdes-Scantling follow his lead?

If the Chiefs are up 250-0 by halftime, we bet Andy Reid will let a couple of his guys stay out there to take in the music.

If not, we’re guessing a player as integral to the offense as Valdes-Scantling is will be around for the halftime adjustments. There’s always the replay!
