As the weather gets chilly across the Midwest, the Eagles have arrived in Green Bay to face the Packers. Monday Night Football will see the two division leaders clashing in a highly anticipated NFC game. But before the first snap at Lambeau Field, fans will unite on the tunes of the “Star-Spangled Banner.” So, who’s lending their voice to the national anthem at the Packers vs Eagles Veterans Day game?

Who is performing the national anthem at the Packers vs Eagles game?

U.S. Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant Alison Bardeguez will take the center field to perform the national anthem. There is no information available about Alison at the time of writing. This season, the Packers vs Eagles game coincides with Veterans Day, a federal holiday in the United States celebrated annually on November 11.

The special day honors the contributions and sacrifices of ‌American military veterans. On this occasion, the evening at Lambeau Field will carry a strong patriotic tone, and the league will pay homage to five Gold Star families on the field. They will also assist in holding the national flag during Bardeguez’s performance.

But before the anthem, the Packers will give a nod to U.S. Army veteran Chad Wessel as part of their Operation Fan Mail initiative. The program celebrates both active-duty service members and veterans at each home game. Moreover, the pre-game rituals will include the players wearing Salute to Service gear, featuring the league’s trademark camo-ribbon decals.

The football field will also feature a military-themed decor, including Salute to Service goalpost wraps and pylon markers. Throughout the game, the management will play the videos honoring the military and their families. As for fans, they will receive a Salute to Service car flag from Green Bay’s sponsor, Fleet Farm. 

Just before the game, the stadium will go pitch black for a pre-intro video as both teams enter the field. The stadium will come alive with spotlights and flashing lights during the team introduction. At halftime of the Packers vs Eagles clash, the celebration will continue with a special salute to veterans and active service members. While it’s bound to be a memorable evening, the Eagles will be missing a new member under the Lambeau lights.

The Eagles have ruled out CB Jaire Alexander

Philadelphia’s new cornerback, Jaire Alexander, will miss the Monday Football action as the franchise has officially ruled him out ahead of Week 10. The decision comes on the heels of Jaire’s persistent knee injury and is part of Philly’s cautious approach. The team didn’t want to rush the cornerback into action.

On November 1, the Eagles received him and a 2027 seventh-rounder from Baltimore in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick. In June, he joined the Ravens under a one-year, $4 million deal. During his time with the team, Alexander played just two games this season because of a knee injury sustained in training camp and inconsistent play afterward.

For Philly, he’s a boost to strengthen the secondary for the remaining season. They are focusing on the long game and want Jaire to fully recover before making his debut. So, Jaire won’t be part of the Packers vs Eagles game. We’ll have to wait for some time before we see the ex-Ravens CB sporting a Philly jersey.
