all looked sharp in suits. Rashee Rice and Wanya Morris – who have both had legal troubles this offseason – also posed together as they got off the plane later on.
It’s long-standing tradition for championship sports teams, both professional and collegiate, to be invited to the White House.The Chiefs have won the Super Bowl three times in the past five years. In 2023, they defeated the Philadelphia Eagles, first lady Jill Biden’s favorite football team. She grew up near Philadelphia and attended the game.
Kansas City also defeated San Francisco to claim the 2020 Super Bowl title.
The Chiefs shared on social media early Friday that ‘we’re celebrating our back-to-back championship seasons and victory in Super Bowl LVIII at the White House.’
Kicker Harrison Butker, who made headlines by assailing some of Biden’s policies during a commencement speech earlier this month, is expected to accompany his teammates to the White House.
