With an American flag covering nearly the full length of the field Sunday as part of a 9/11 remembrance, the MetLife Stadium crowd sang the national anthem in unison before the Jets-Ravens kickoff.
New York Police Department officer Brianna Fernandez was the actual singer, but she invited the crowd to sing along in a video published by the Jets on Twitter moments before kickoff. Fireworks were shot off from the top of the stadium about halfway through the chilling rendition.
“I’m so excited to be here, so thrilled to be singing on this special day,” Fernandez said, “and I hope that everyone joins in with me today.”
The Jets also held moments of silence for the victims of 9/11, for the late Queen Elizabeth II and (in the press box) for Miami Dolphins senior vice president of communications Jason Jenkins.
