NFL fans are in a frenzy after watching one of the most bizarre halftime shows to date — a kid riding on the back of a sheep in a “sheep rodeo” at the Denver Broncos game.
A child, who looked to be about 8–10 years of age, was seen riding on the back of the barn animal before being knocked off as the sheep made his way down the NFL field.
But that’s not all — because then, fans watched as approximately four other sheep crowded the end zone.

NFL fans instantly flooded X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, as one user said, “That Broncos halftime show with the sheep rodeo is already better than the Super Bowl halftime show.”

“The NFL is one of the biggest and best sports leagues in the world, but I need someone to explain why I just saw a child riding a sheep in Denver. Unusual,” another said.

As FOX Sports wrote, “Didn’t expect to come across Championship sheep riding today, but the Broncos halftime show had other plans.”

As one social media user said, “Silly. Broncos, 3Q. [A] child riding a sheep, need I say more?”
One NFL fan hilariously wrote, “What is this sheep racing during the Broncos game?!”

It’s safe to say that NFL fans will be saying “Sheep Country, Let’s Ride” instead of “Broncos Country, Let’s Ride.”

NFL defensive player Taylor Rapp left the Buffalo Bills vs New York Jets game on November 19 on a stretcher. He was carted off the field in an ambulance after he encountered a helmet-to-helmet.
Rapp leaving the game came just hours after Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Joey Bosa was carted off the field in the first quarter of the football game Sunday afternoon. He was seen sitting on the back of the cart, crying into his towel as he left the game.

Plus, on November 5, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver K.J. Osborne took a hard hit during the NFL game, resulting in him being carted off the field. The wide receiver was sandwiched between two NFL players. He remained down on the field for several minutes as players from both teams kneeled on the turf.
NFL quarterback Deshaun Watson also suffered a severe head injury after a play during the Cleveland Browns vs the Indianapolis Colts on October 22. The 28-year-old remained down on the field for several minutes after he got shoved to the ground hard by a defender, resulting in his head slamming into the turf.
Watson has been ruled out for the remainder of the NFL season.
