Philadelphia Eagles Reportedly Make Final Decision On White House Visit Following Super Bowl 59 Win
The Philadelphia Eagles have reportedly made a decision on whether or not they will visit the White House following their Super Bowl win earlier this month.
The NFC powerhouse dethroned the Kansas City Chiefs to win their second title on February 9, and there were questions over whether they would make the customary visit to the White House, having snubbed Donald Trump after winning their first in 2018.
According to a source on social media, the team will not be going this time either.
“Eagles decline another invitation to the White House…Love this Ownership, Organization AND THIS TEAM LETS GO BIRDS. Oh yeah!!! Resist!!” their post reads.
Philadelphia Eagles Revealed White Whouse Visit Would Come Down To A Team Vote
“I’d be honored to go, regardless of who the president is, but we’ll see,” Johnson, who is also a team captain, said. “It’s ultimately a team decision. I’ll do what’s best for the team.”
Johnson was one of four players who were on the Eagles’ first Super Bowl-winning team when they opted not to attend following Trump’s criticism of players kneeling during the national anthem.
