Famous rapper Jay-Z left Brooklyn and made his way to Northwest Stadium to watch the Commanders versus Cowboys rivalry game live alongside Fanatics CEO and friend Michael Rubin.
Jay-Z was dressed in all black with a beanie, sunglasses and a peach coat to go alongside a black sweatshirt.
The 'Dirt Off Your Shoulder' performer does not appear to have a vested interest in the matchup, outside of possibly getting to see Rookie of the Year favorite Jayden Daniels in person.
Jay-Z's Roc Nation brand has paired in recent years with the NFL to help produce the Super Bowl halftime shows, while the legendary rapper has never performed during the NFL's championship break.
The Commanders have had a resurgent season at 7-4 heading into their matchup with their arch rivals.
Dallas has been one of the NFL's most disappointing teams this year at 3-7.

Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin was also in attendance at the NFC East matchup in the DC area
Washington's home stadium is in Landover, Maryland, which is 11 miles outside the city's downtown area.
The Commanders-Cowboys' rivalry is considered one of the NFL's most storied and hated.
Even when one of the franchises is having a down year, it is still considered a huge victory any time one team beats the other.
Jay-Z previously said he had an interest in buying the Commanders when up for sale two years ago.
Yet, it was the group led by Josh Harris and basketball legend Magic Johnson that secured ownership from Daniel Snyder.
Jay-Z has won 24 Grammy Awards in his career, tied for the most for a hip-hop artist with Kanye West.
