Offensive lineman Lane Johnson indicated that any decision regarding the White\u200c House visit would be a collective choice by\u200b the team. Quarterback\u2063 Jalen Hurts expressed indifference towards Trump&#8217;s attendance at the game,contrasting\u2064 with the Kansas\u200c City Chiefs\u2019 tight end,who praised the president&#8217;s presence. The \u200barticle \u2064also notes that Trump has congratulated \u2063the \u200bChiefs but\u2063 did not acknowledge the Eagles after their NFC championship win and left the Super Bowl \u2063early when \u2063it\u2064 became apparent that the Eagles would win.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Philadelphia Eagles to skip White House visit following Super Bowl win: Report<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2016107\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/philadelphia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Philadelphia Eagles<\/a> are likely to skip their <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/white-house\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">White House<\/a> visit after winning the <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/super-bowl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Super Bowl<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>An invitation to be hosted by President Donald Trump in Washington, D.C., was already rejected, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-sun.com\/sport\/13471064\/philadelphia-eagles-white-house-super-bowl-trump-snub\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">according to<\/a> the <em>U.S. Sun<\/em>.
