NFL World Reacts To Veteran’s Day National Anthem Before Ravens-Dolphins Game

On Thursday night, the Baltimore Ravens and Miami Dolphins stepped on the field for an AFC showdown.

Shortly before the game kicked off, the Dolphins learned that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa wouldn’t be starting. As he nurses a finger injury, backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett will make his second-straight start.

Before the action got started, FOX showed support for military veterans in its pregame show. Although broadcasts have shied away from showing the national anthem this year, FOX did so tonight.

Retired officer Generald Wilson is a fan favorite, but tonight was a little extra special for him. Wilson delivered an incredible rendition, which ended in a standing ovation from those in the stands.

Here’s his performance.

Wilson’s rendition of the anthem received massive acclaim on social media.

“That guy who sung the anthem is amazing. He’s been doing it for years at Hard Rock Stadium and has never disappointed,” said reporter Antwan Staley.
