The Philadelphia Eagles' White House contingent would apparently have been a small one, as quarterback Nick Foles and potentially one other player were planning to attend the ceremony, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

A lot of their fans are classless too.
Good idea.
There's still plenty of time to do that before the season starts, and I've never known this President to back down from a fight.
Additionally, I hear tell he thanked his offensive line by buying them all nice shotguns.
I can't believe he would've refused an invite to the White House.
So is Pederson, he said he was looking forward to going.
Him, Pederson and Foles are pure class.
He was going.
Bet Foles doesn’t make it through the pre-season.
“He was going.”
But the media was going to attack Foles for attending, and use the team mo-show to embarrass trump.
Only two people out of an entire football team were going to visit the WH? Trump had no choice but to cancel the thing.
Agree. I was a Redskins fan ... and neither the ‘Skins nor Giants have been particularly bad on this issue ... but I always found Philadelphia and its fans loathesome (even tho a very dear old friend of mine was a part owner of the Iggles many years ago).
Sorry to burst your bubble but the team that wins the Stanley Cup will have a black player. Now the question is, are they American? I mean the best black player in the NHL is French Canadian.
Ryan Reeves is from Winnipeg, Manitoba and Smith-Pelley is from Scarborough, Ontario. So um.... they’re black and not American.
They have Russians on the team. So if they go to the White House, it will just be more “Russian Collusion”
I think that’s right - Trump can make a significant mark by simply being the one to stop honoring these silly traditions.
Another thing he should do is announce before the 2020 election that he does not intend to have a presidential library - a brick and mortar library. He should announce a cloud based archive, to be created after his 2nd terms ends in 2025, that will save the taxpayers huge amounts of money. By declaring that he does not need a monument to himself - he will draw a contrast with BHO, whose shrine is causing quite the stink in the Windy City.
Yes, true if Washington wins their best player is Russian. It will be part of the Muller investigation, Alexander Ovechkin is carrying in secret messages from Vladimir Putin in the bottom of the Stanley Cup.
However, believe it or not, there is not one Russian player on the Golden Knights.
The fix is in!
Just go back to calling the winning coach in the locker room after the game.
As more info come out and showed lots of stupid people opining before they know any fact(s) (here’s looking at you, Mayor Kenney).
And the Eagles team made to look even more stupider than I possibly imagined. With only a few exceptions, the bad reputation couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch.
Who cares,I think they will get a private invite.
