During the Philadelphia Eagles' visit to the White House on Monday, President Donald Trump claimed he tried to help the New York Giants avoid what has come to be viewed by most people in and around the NFL as a serious blunder: Allowing running back Saquon Barkley to sign with the eventual Super Bowl champion Eagles.

Saquon Barkley won a Super Bowl with the Philadelphia Eagles, but his past with the New York Giants remains a talking point — even for the president of the United States. The Eagles were at the White House on Monday afternoon to visit President Donald Trump in celebration of their Super Bowl LIX victory.

The Super Bowl MVP, Hurts did not attend the White House ceremony on Monday, but did attend in 2018 with Alabama.
