Jalen Hurts was not in attendance when the Philadelphia Eagles visited the White House on Monday to celebrate their 2024 NFL championship. The former Alabama and Oklahoma quarterback, it was reported, would not be among the Eagles at the ceremony, with the White House saying Hurts and other players who would not be there had “scheduling conflicts.”

"Complementing Saquon's historic season was an incredible year from star quarterback Jalen Hurts," Trump said. "He had a great season. He had a great game. Finished with 32 touchdowns on the year, turning in one stellar performance after another. Terrific guy and a terrific player."
