Several Philadelphia Eagles players were not at the White House ceremony with President Donald Trump on Monday. A few hours before the event, NBC News White House correspondent Yamiche Alcindor announced that Super Bowl MVP and quarterback Jalen Hurts along with multiple unnamed players would not attend.

The Eagles are Super Bowl 59 champions, and as is par for the course, Jeffrey Lurie's team will visit President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday afternoon. The US Sun initially caused mass confusion after the Super Bowl when it reported that Philadelphia team brass and some players had declined an invitation to the White House.

Quarterback Jalen Hurts was non-committal last week when asked about the Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl visit to the White House.
