Is Justin Tucker kicking around a singing career?

Justin Tucker: Singer and Kicker
Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker is becoming as famous for his vocal cords as his kicking leg. Back in September during a Monday Night Football game, he was featured in a Royal Farms Coffee commercial singing a java jingle to the Torreador Song melody.

A music major at the University of Texas, Tucker claims he can sing opera in seven different languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Latin and Russian). In October 2013, he showed off his Italian skills by singing "Deh vieni alla finestra" from Mozart's Don Giovanni for Dr. Pepper's "1 of a Kind" web campaign.


Last night he showed up as the special guest performer at Catholic Charities' Christmas Festival and sang Ave Maria at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Mount Vernon, Maryland. Tucker, who began singing opera in college, was joined by the Concert Artists of Baltimore. He received a standing ovation from the full house.


If the singing thing doesn't work out, he's probably pretty secure in his day job. Last December, Tucker became the first NFL kicker to kick a field goal in the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s in the same game. Tucker's 61 yard field goal in that game also set the NFL record for longest field goal in a domed stadium. He was elected to his first Pro Bowl to end the 2013 season and was also voted First Team All-Pro by the Associated Press.

Baltimore Ravens Super Bowl kicker Justin Tucker sings opera in online Dr. Pepper commercial


Justin Tucker
Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker has some major accomplishments under his belt for only being 23 years old. In 2011, while playing for the University of Texas, he kicked the game winning field goal against arch rival Texas A&M University as the clock expired. A year later, he won a Super Bowl ring as the undrafted kicker of the Baltimore Ravens. Tucker also kicked a 47-yard field goal in double-overtime to win the AFC championship against the Denver Broncos.

Tucker hasn't just made a name for himself with his legs, he also has a serious set of pipes. A music major at the University of Texas, Tucker claims he can sing opera in seven different languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Latin and Russian). He showed off his Italian skills recently by singing "Deh vieni alla finestra" from Mozart's Don Giovanni for Dr. Pepper's "1 of a Kind" web campaign, which debuted on YouTube last week.


Tucker's musical training is actually in recording technology and he records hip-hop and dubstep beats. He even did some freestyle rapping for the Dr. Pepper video. Tucker’s relationship with Dr. Pepper started last year after he posted a picture of a can he was drinking from on Instagram after a game in San Diego with the message,  "Nothin like a frosty cold Dr. Pep after a road win!"
