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.
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.
A Philadelphia Eagles trip to the White House may still be in the works. Over the weekend, online chatter blew up over a report from The Sun earlier this month that the Super Bowl champions had given the White House a “massive no” in response to an invitation to the White House to honor the victory.
The Philadelphia Eagles have reportedly snubbed an invitation to the White House following their Super Bowl victory, sparking backlash from MAGA. Newsweek reached out to a representative for the Philadelphia Eagles via email for comment.
Though Trump's White House rescinded an invitation to the championship Eagles in 2018, officials say no formal invitation for 2025 was issued.
“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.
President Trump said that he will invite the Philadelphia Eagles to visit the White House after winning the Super Bowl over the Chiefs.
President Trump said Tuesday the Philadelphia Eagles will be invited to visit the White House soon following their win over the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl.
“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.
The Philadelphia Eagles have not been formally invited to the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl 2025 win, according to a report in The Philadelphia Inquirer, and have not declined an invitation as of Monday,
