As the host of the NFC Championship Game, the Philadelphia Eagles have lined up a legendary singer to perform the National Anthem before the game! Performing the National Anthem at today’s game is eight-time Grammy-winner Anita Baker.

The tapping of Baker to perform the National Anthem at the NFC Championship game seems like a fitting choice and is a full-circle moment for the team.

After the Eagles’ 25-20 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 15, Eagles Quarterback Jalen Hurts told FOX’s Pam Oliver that he was looking forward to enjoying the victory by putting on his Anita Baker and enjoying the flight home. The moment went viral and even caught Baker’s attention on social media.
