Former NFL star cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones said the Philadelphia Eagles, or any team, should go to the White House to celebrate the Super Bowl title.
The Philadelphia Eagles will accept a White House invite from President Donald Trump to celebrate their Super Bowl LIX victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.
NFL insider Adam Schefter refuted rumors that the Philadelphia #Eagles will skip their White House visit after winning Super Bowl LIX.
It remains unclear whether such an invitation will be extended by Trump, who abruptly disinvited the Eagles on the eve of their planned trip in 2018.
Maybe the Eagles will be going to the White House after all. That's because on Monday, the NFL Network reported, citing team sources, that the Super Bowl champion Eagles "would be honored to visit The White House" after conversations Monday.
Though Trump's White House rescinded an invitation to the championship Eagles in 2018, officials say no formal invitation for 2025 was issued.
Trump confirms he’ll invite the Eagles to the White House, despite earlier reports suggesting the team planned to decline.
A report from earlier this month claiming the Eagles declined an invitation to the White House recently went viral.
“The Philadelphia Eagles are unable to come to the White House with their full team to be celebrated tomorrow,” Trump said back then. “They disagree with their President because he insists they proudly stand for the National Anthem, hand on heart, in honor of the great men and women of our military and the people of our country.
