The Baltimore Ravens better hope they don't have to make many offensive adjustments at halftime on Wednesday – because Lamar Jackson says he skips the conversation in the break locker room Beyonce.
The quarterback – who many believe is currently the leading candidate for the NFL's MVP award – let his team and fans know on Monday that he will be on the sideline at Yoncé's Christmas concert at NRG Stadium in Houston.

Of course, it's extremely rare for players to opt out of halftime meetings in favor of exhibitions – the last person to do so was the Bengals kicker Evan McPherson at Super Bowl LVI received one lots of game.
Jackson clearly knows it could unsettle some Ravens… because after revealing his plans, he smiled and apologized to his head coach and his boys.
“I’m sorry, Harbaugh,” he said. “Sorry, guys.”
It would be hard to fault Jackson if he ultimately went through with the plans — the NFL has been hyping their performance for months … even extending the halftime break so they could accommodate a longer show.
It's all expected to go down just an hour or two after the Ravens vs. Texans matchup begins at 1:30 p.m. PT.
