Jalen Hurts and his Philadelphia Eagles teammates have reportedly turned down the opportunity to celebrate their Super Bowl at the White House.
After the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX on Feb. 9, one question remained unanswered, but it appears we now know that the Eagles do not desire to see President Donald Trump.
The Philadelphia Eagles decided to skip the White House visit.
“A source at the Eagles, who spoke anonymously, stressed that conversations about refusing a visit with President Donald Trump after beating the Kansas City Chiefs have already occurred,” the outlet reported.
The U.S. Sun said the response was a massive no.
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts appears to have made his thoughts and feelings on President Trump very clear.
Hurts became a trending topic after he gave a straightforward answer about his thoughts about President Donald Trump attending Super Bowl LIX in February 2025.
During the Super Bowl LIX media day, Hurts was asked how he felt about Trump attending the game.
“He’s welcome to do what he wants,” Hurts said to reporters.
That was vastly different from what Travis Kelce stated when he responded, “It’s awesome. It’s a great honor.”
His comments shouldn’t be too shocking since President Donald Trump backed the Kansas City Chiefs to win the Super Bowl.

President Donald Trump became the first sitting U.S. president to attend a Super Bowl, and the stars playing in the game were fully aware of his attendance.
“He’s welcome to do what he wants,” Hurts said when asked about the President.
When the Eagles quarterback was asked a follow-up question about whether Trump’s presence would put more pressure on him, the quarterback responded, “No.”
Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was named MVP of Super Bowl LIX following a 40-22 victory over the Chiefs.
Hurts passed for 221 yards and two touchdowns while completing 77.3 percent of his passes. He also used his feet to rush for 72 yards and one touchdown.
