Philadelphia Eagles Players Say They'll Skip White House Visit After Super Bowl Win
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And a number of NFL players on the Philadelphia Eagles say they won't
visit the White House for the traditional Super Bowl victory
celebration. Among the players boycotting the visit as a protest against
President Trump are Malcolm Jenkins and Torrey Smith, as well as Chris
Long, who also refused to visit the White House last year, when he
played for the New England Patriots, who won the Super Bowl then.
