Ravens kicker wins NFL talent show with stunning opera performance
Justin Tucker's opera skills continue to go unmatched - at least in the NFL.
The Ravens' kicker won CBS' "Most Valuable Performer", which is a genius idea for a show, with his performance of "Ave Maria".
Jonathan Stewart also showed off some impressive musical talent.
This is far from the first time Tucker's shown off his pipes. He received a standing ovation at this performance in Baltimore in 2015:
More on how Tucker became a skilled opera singer f rom this 2016 Bleacher Report profile:
Tucker went to the University of Texas as a kicker, a punter and a broadcast journalism major. One week into his college experience, he knew broadcast journalism wasn't for him. He wanted to major in something that didn't feel like school.
What could that be? Music, again.
He took several months of voice lessons and auditioned for the Butler School of Music. He was accepted, and during his time at Texas, he found his bass-baritone voice and learned to sing opera in English, Russian, Czech, Latin, Italian, French, German and Spanish. He learned about chord analysis, secondary dominants and counterpoint too.
