Jim Nantz and Tony Romo are in the middle of calling what is a back and forth matchup in the second half of Super Bowl LVIII between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers. However, amidst all the action from Las Vegas, Romo has found more spot than one to share some unique calls on the broadcast.

Earlier in the game, Romo sang some lines from ‘Rolling in the Deep’ by Adele as it went to commercial. Then, later on after Kansas City took the lead, he belted out a few words from ‘Fight For Your Right’ by the Beastie Boys, a song that has become a form of mantra for TE Travis Kelce and the Chiefs.

Romo’s first chorus came in the middle of the second quarter. The game was still building up with San Francisco up just 3-0 to that point.

His second came late in the third quarter after Kansas City converted off of a muffed punt and scored their first touchdown of the night to take a 13-10 lead. They’d fought for their right to take their first advantage of the night and, as such, Romo serenaded the national viewership with some more lyrics.

Romo has made a post-career name for himself based on what he has done in the booth and with a headset on at CBS. Singing during the Super Bowl, though, is right up there with some his more odd calls as a broadcaster.

WATCH: Reba McEntire sings national anthem at Super Bowl LVIII

Reba McEntire took center stage on Sunday in Las Vegas at Super Bowl LVIII as she delivered a moving rendition of the national anthem

McEntire performed the nation’s anthem in front of what CBS is hoping will be a record-setting audience for the Chiefs versus 49ers. Last year’s Super Bowl garnered 114.3 million viewers. The over/under for the length of the anthem before the singing began was 90.5 seconds.

In addition to McEntire’s pre-game performance, Grammy-winner Post Malone performed “America the Beautiful” while Andra Day sang “Lift Every Voice and Sing” before kickoff.

Hip-hop and rap artist Usher headlined this year’s Super Bowl Apple Music Halftime Show. The 44-year-old has eight studio albums dating back to 1994’s self-titled Usher album. He most recently released Hard II Love in 2016.
