After President Donald Trump be♊came the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl when he watched the Eagles wallop the Chiefs in February, Philad෴elphia will now return the gesture as the team has accepted the White House’s invitation for a visit.
The Monday afternoon that both the White Ho❀use and the team are working out the details but that the visit is in the works.
“We sent the invite, and they enthusiastically accepted,ꦐ” a White House official said. “We are working with them to determ🎃ine a date and logistics.”
An Eagles spokesperson confirmed.
After Philadelphia’s first-ever Super Bowl win in 2018, during Trump’s first te🐲rm, custom waꦇs broken as the team did not visit the White House.
Several players had spoken out saying they would not attend in 2018 and it was going to be just a small group in at෴tendance, whi🀅ch led to Trump and his staff pulling the invite.
The White House called Philadelphia’s decisions a “political stunt” before revoking the invite.
It briefly seemed like things were headed in the same direction after aggregator Dov Kleiman posted a weeks-old report saying that the team would not visit this time, either.
The story, though, was soon proven to be false, and with just four players remaining from the 2018 team, Pres🔴ident Trump and the franchise have seemingly moved past the drama.
The Ea⛎gles are set to be the second team to visit President Trump since he began his second term, as the 2024 Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers traveled to the White House in February.
Trump commended Philadelphia following its 40-22 Super Bowl 2025 win over💎 the Chiefs🌟.
“The Eagles were really, it was like flawless football, amazing,” Trump said in 🐲a radio interview with Mark Levin. “Even the first play, they called it back. It was a long pass, it was, you know, either a touchdown or going to be a touchdo🍃wn. They called it back, completed long pass, and they went on to get touchdown after touchdown. They really played great.”
