Ravens announce Nelly as halftime performer for Week 5 matchup vs. Bengals

The Baltimore Ravens are preparing for a massive “Sunday Night Football” against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 5 of the 2022 season. Baltimore suffered two blowout losses to Cincinnati in 2021, so they’ll be looking to get their revenge in the first matchup between the two this year.

On Tuesday, Baltimore announced that Nelly will be performing at halftime during the game against the Bengals. The rapper/singer is known for his song “Hot in Herre,” which former Ravens inside linebacker Ray Lewis ran out of the tunnel to during his time in the NFL.

The Ravens need to come out and play well on both sides of the ball after blowing two double-digit leads at home this season. Getting the tiebreaker over the Bengals would be huge no matter how early the season is right now after getting swept last year.

The AFC North rivals face off again in Cincinnati in January to close out the regular season.
