On Monday after the Ravens practice, Lamar Jackson joked or referenced to the media that he wouldn’t miss Beyonce’s halftime performance at NRG Stadium on Christmas Day during Baltimore’s crucial matchup against Houston.
Before the second half, Netflix sideline reporter Jamie Erdahl confirmed that Jackson missed that performance, and head coach John Harbaugh ensured that.
Jamie Erdahl on Netflix broadcast: “I did ask [John Harbaugh] if he had to tell his QB to stay in the locker room for the Beyoncé halftime show. He said he didn’t have to tell him, however, he did check to make sure he stayed in.”
Sorry, Lamar.

Jackson was 6-11 passing for 147 yards (13.4 avg), one touchdown, zero interceptions and a 129.9 rating. Jackson has one carry for 25 yards in the first half. With The Ravens cruising over the Texans, if any player could have snuck out to watch Beyonce, it was the two-time MVP.
