The Philadelphia Eagles' feeling of being Super Bowl champions still isn't going away. Despite Super Bowl LIX being nearly three months ago, they are still celebrating, even though the offseason programs are drawing near for the NFL.
One big question remains regarding the Eagles' visit to the White House: Will Jalen Hurts be in attendance?
It has become customary for the championship teams to visit the White House, and the Los Angeles Dodgers recently made their trip to the nation's capital.
On Thursday night, Hurts was asked if he was planning on visiting the White House when the Eagles go, and he gave an interesting response.
"Um," Hurts replied during the TIME100 Gala in New York City.
The reporter chuckled and said, "Thank you so much."

The last time the Eagles won the Super Bowl, they declined the White House invitation, which came in 2018. However, reports stated that the Eagles have accepted this time and the tour is set for April 28.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed that back in March.
"I know there was a lot of fake news about an invitation that wasn't sent or was sent, we want to correct the record: we sent an invitation, they enthusiastically accepted, and you will see them here on April 28," she said.
Being able to go to the White House is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for many, but Hurts' comment - or lack thereof - might have shown his true thoughts on making the trip to Washington, D.C.
