The first time Trump was in office, the Eagles did not accept the invitation when they won Super Bowl LII in 2018. That year, President Trump rescinded the team's invitation to visit at the last minute as some players planned to boycott the event. After the Eagles declined, no other NFL team has gone to the White House after winning the Super Bowl.

President Trump said that he will invite the Eagles to visit the White House after winning the Super Bowl over the Chiefs.

President Donald Trump has said he will invite the Philadelphia Eagles to the White House to celebrate their recent Super Bowl win, despite rumours that the champions may decline the invitation. "Absolutely, they'll be extended an invitation," Trump said in the Oval Office on Tuesday. "They deserve to be down here, and we hope to see them."
