Some Eagles Will Skip White House Visit - Just hours after the Philadelphia Eagles won the Super Bowl, talk is turning to who won’t visit the White House to celebrate the win.
Given Donald Trump’s Twitter war over kneeling during the National Anthem, it should be no surprise that some of the championship team will not be making that traditional trip. Malcolm Jenkins, who became a spokesman for the players who protested, shouldn’t be expected there. LeGarrette Blount, who played for the Patriots last year skipped the visit at the time, saying, "I just don't feel welcome into that house. I'm just gonna leave it at that." Chris Long will also not go, as he didn’t last year as a Patriot.
There has been no date for the visit set and no “official” word about it from the team or any players. Here's an idea, President Trump, don't extend an invitation. They dont want YOU, you shouldn't want THEM!
