Watch: Listeners Cheer as Nat'l Anthem Singer Blows Out Monday Night Football, Even Want Her Signed for Super Bowl

The National Football League does not exactly have a recent track record of sensible leadership.

To its credit, however, the league kicked off one of the 2026 season’s biggest games with a stirring national anthem.

On Monday night at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, singer Morgan St. Jean delivered a rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” so powerful that at least one user on the social media platform X urged the league to bring her back to that same stadium in February and have her perform at the 2027 Super Bowl.
