Before Thursday’s primetime game, a video on X displayed the Pro Bowl kicker Tucker warming up on the Chiefs’ side of the field.
Tucker was seen stretching his arms and legs as he was in the vicinity of Kansas City players.
Two Ravens staff members were also planting a place-kicking stand for the 34-year-old to use to practice his kicking.
Tucker’s pregame warmup comes after he performed the same action on Kansas City’s side of the field before last season’s 2023 AFC Championship Game in Baltimore.
The Chiefs went on to beat the favored Ravens 17-10 and advance to the Super Bowl where they claimed the overtime victory over the San Francisco 49ers.
NFL fans were impressed with the bold pregame move by Tucker on social media.
“Justin Tucker warmups are next level,” one commented.
“Always a highlight! Justin Tucker’s warmup sessions never fail to impress, especially next to the Chiefs,” another said.
“He wants the smoke,” a third added.
“What a troll!!” a fourth joked.
When Tucker did the warmup tactic in last year’s playoffs, Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce yelled at the kicker for warming up on Kansas City’s side of the field.
Kelce wasn’t in sight when Tucker achieved the same move on Thursday.
And no other Chiefs player seemed to have a problem with the Pro Bowler.
Kansas City will be hoping to win its third Super Bowl in a row.

No team in NFL history has accomplished that feat.
The Chiefs will be displaying their 2024 first-round pick wide receiver Xavier Worthy on the big stage.
As for Baltimore, they haven’t won a Super Bowl since 2012.
Ravens new star running back Derrick Henry will be making his debut with the squad.
Baltimore will still be led by Lamar Jackson, who won his second career MVP in 2023.
