Carson Wentz plans to make White House visit; Doug Pederson leaving decision up to players

The Eagles will visit the White House on June 5, coach Doug Pederson confirmed Tuesday. Pederson added that he’s leaving up to each player to make an individual decision about whether they want to attend.

“Right now, June 5 is the day we’re going to go,” Pederson said. “Excited to be going, be honored as World Champions. I think it’s a great honor. We’re still working through the logistics now so don’t have all the details right now, but excited to be going. …It’s [on] an individual basis. It’s one of those things, we’re working through a ton of things, but we understand it’s an individual decision.
