It’s Super Bowl week, which means among other things that it’s time to ask players involved if they plan to accompany their team to the White House, should that team win it all. The Philadelphia Eagles’ Chris Long didn’t even wait until Monday’s media day to assert that, with President Donald Trump in office, he would not want to make the trip.
“No, I’m not going to the White House,” Long said on the “Pardon My Take” podcast. “Are you kidding me?”
Long didn’t specify Trump as the reason he would decline an invitation to join the Eagles on a possible White House visit, but he didn’t have to, given his comments last year.
