  • Philadelphia Eagles White House Visit Decision Still Pending as no official invitation has been sent yet.
  • The Eagles have a history of controversy with the White House over national anthem protests.
  • Public reactions to the potential snub are divided with both support and criticism.

The Philadelphia Eagles have not officially turned down an invitation to visit the White House after their Super Bowl LIX victory.

Despite reports suggesting that the team may skip the visit, sources with knowledge of the situation within the NFL indicate that the White House has not yet sent an official invitation.

This has led to some controversy, with critics accusing the team of planning to snub President Donald Trump, while others back their possible choice.

The Eagles’ past interactions with the White House have been problematic. Following their victory in Super Bowl LII in 2018, the team largely declined to attend a White House ceremony due to disagreements with President Trump regarding player protests during the national anthem. However, the Eagles have not made any public statements regarding their intentions for a possible White House visit this time around.

In recent years, the dynamic between the NFL and the White House has been strained, particularly in light of player protests and social justice matters. Despite these tensions, the NFL has not hesitated to interact with President Trump, who most recently appeared at the Super Bowl and participated in various sports-related activities.

Public response to the Eagles’ potential decision has been varied. Some fans and media figures have voiced support for the team’s position, while others, including Megyn Kelly, have criticized them for what they perceive as a snub to the president.
