(NEXSTAR) – The Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles met with President Trump at the White House Monday, but a notable star was absent – quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Hurts was not the only Eagles players to decline the D.C. trip, citing scheduling conflicts, a White House official who was not authorized to comment publicly and requested anonymity told The Associated Press and Nexstar’s NewsNation.
Asked by a reporter on the red carpet of the Time 100 Gala last week whether he would visit, Hurts responded with an awkward “um” and long silence before walking away.
