US EditionPhiladelphia Eagles visit Donald Trump at White House minus quarterback Jalen Hurts
- The Philadelphia Eagles will be honored at the White House on Monday to commemorate their 2025 Super Bowl win against the Kansas City Chiefs, but quarterback Jalen Hurts is expected to miss the event due to scheduling conflicts.
- The visit follows a 2018 feud between the Eagles and President Donald Trump, leading most players to decline that year's White House event, while this year some players, including Hurts, cited scheduling conflicts for their absence.
- Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie stated attendance is optional with no penalties, and running back Saquon Barkley, who golfed with Trump over the weekend, is expected to attend despite some criticism.
- Hurts, named Time's 2025 most influential and Super Bowl MVP, led the team to a 14-3 regular season with about 2,900 passing yards, 630 rushing yards, and 32 touchdowns, yet he avoided comment about the visit when asked.
- The visit signals a tentative reconciliation with Trump, though significant player absences highlight ongoing divisions, while the team publicly maintains that participation is a personal choice respecting tradition.
