The Philadelphia Eagles’ potential trip to the White House to celebrate their 2025 Super Bowl win is uncertain, with no official invitation received yet. A report by The Philadelphia Inquirer states that the team has not been formally invited by President Donald Trump. However, an NFL source believes the team will accept the invitation once it’s extended.
This decision comes with a precedent from 2018 when the Eagles’ visit to the White House was canceled after players expressed their dislike for then-President Trump. The team had planned to celebrate their Super Bowl LII victory on the South Lawn, but Trump disinvited them due to their stance on standing during the national anthem.
The situation is currently being monitored by the NFL and media outlets, with some sources speculating that the Eagles will visit the White House regardless of who holds office. The team’s owner, Jeffrey Lurie, avoided commenting on the issue earlier this year, leaving it up to a potential team vote for the players.
