Philadelphia Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson isn’t ready to commit to a White House visit following the Super Bowl 59 triumph.
Johnson and the Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 in Super Bowl 59 to win their second Lombardi Trophy in eight seasons. Along with securing another championship, the Eagles denied the Chiefs of the first-ever Super Bowl three-peat.
Every year, the Super Bowl champions are invited to the White House to meet and celebrate with the President of the United States. But in 2018, then-president Donald Trump canceled the Eagles invitation.
Several players and owner Jeffrey Lurie vocally criticized Trump, who’s serving his second term in office. Trump rescinded the invitation after multiple Eagles players said they wouldn’t attend the White House.
Per Sportico’s Eric Jackson, the Eagles team captain expressed interest in going to the White House this time around. However, Johnson said it’ll be “a team decision”, and that he’ll go with they all decide.
“I’d be honored to go, regardless of who the president is, but we’ll see,” Johnson said. “It’s ultimately a team decision. I’ll do what’s best for the team.”
Lane Johnson Adds 2nd Ring To The Trophy Room
Lane Johnson is one of four Eagles players remaining from the Super Bowl 52 championship team, along with Brandon Graham, Jake Elliott and Rick Lovato, to have secured his second ring with the organization.
Sunday’s victory only strengthens Johnson’s case for a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame after his playing career. The 34-year-old is now a two-time Super Bowl champion with six Pro Bowl nods, two First-team and three Second-team All-Pro selections.
VIDEO: Some Dude Just Dropped The Cold Hard Truth On Why All Of These NFL Prospects Are “Dating White Women”
Unless this is your first day in America, then you know race relations in this country dominate just everything, and that includes NBA and NFL drafts
During the most recent NFL Draft in Detroit, social media was buzzing as athletes showed up to the red carpet event with their girlfriends and family. Many of the incoming NFL rookies were African-American and were spotted with white women, which has become the usual theme for years.
The same thing happens with the NBA Draft.
This year, the discourse on the NFL Draft and NBA Draft has gotten even louder as African-American women openly pondered why so many of the players never have a partner that is the same race as them.
One guy on TikTok decided to answer that question by revealing that the vast majority of his division-1 friends in college or headed to the league are dating or married to white women and explained why.
He stated that some of them had told him that their white girlfriend looked up to Taylor Swift while their girlfriend looked up to Megan The Stallion. He then states the guy asks how many white women he has seen doing the Megan Thee Stallion challenge as opposed to Black women.
He then dove into another story of a friend who relayed that his Black girlfriend started to request money from him as soon as she found out about his NIL money. She wanted her hair and nails done. He then added that the Black women would be upset if they went to places like Chipotle, and she demanded steak houses.
