The Philadelphia Eagles would visit the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl victory if invited, according to multiple reports.
The Eagles were disinvited to the White House in 2018, the last time they won the Super Bowl, after a number of players said they would drop out amid tensions over the anthem protests that had swept the NFL. Donald Trump, then in his first term as president, had attacked players who knelt during the anthem to protest against racial inequality.
