Philadelphia – Eagles will visit the White House on 28 April, to celebrate their super bowl Lix victory over the heads of the Canasus City.
White House press secretary Karolin Lewitt announced the news on Tuesday.
“I know there were a lot of fake news about an invitation, which were not sent or not sent, we want to correct the record: we sent an invitation, they enthusiastically accepted, and you will see them here on 28 April,” he said.
A team spokesperson confirmed that Eagles accepted the invitation. Eagles did not go to the White House after his super bowl LII win over New England Patriots at 2018. President Donald Trump canceled the event when it was learned that only a few players had planned to participate.
Under the leadership of former security Malcolm Jenkins, Eagles were central to a player led by a player who was dedicated to highlight social injustice, which included some players protesting while playing the national anthem before the sports. Announcing the decision to cancel the 2018 visit, President Trump wrote that Eagles “disagree with his President” disagree, as he proudly stood for the national anthem, the heart on the heart, the hands, our military and the great men and women of the people of our country. ,
Jenkins and the former protective end Chris Long were among those who knew that he did not plan to participate.
Jenkins said in 2018, “I do not want to get away from someone’s experience or make it a great distraction. It’s a festive event, and I want those who choose to go or enjoy whatever they enjoy.
“In the last two years, I am meeting with both MLAs, Republican and Democrats, it doesn’t matter. If you want to talk about events in your community, then change the country, I am all for it. But it is not one of those meetings, so I will get out of the photo.”
