Since November 2016, players on championship teams have faced questions about whether they will go visit the White House in the traditional celebration for a new title team.
For Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, who was one of the players to kneel during the national anthem in 2017 to bring attention to social injustice, politics don’t seem to matter in his decision. Others have avoided the White House trip since Donald Trump was elected, but Kelce is excited to go.
TMZ had Kelce’s comments over going to the White House, and he explained himself on Twitter.
