President Donald Trump said he plans to host the Kansas City Chiefs at the White House to celebrate their COVID-19-affected Super Bowl victory from five years ago.The Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV in February 2020 but were unable to celebrate fully �� including the customary visit to the White House �� because of the COVID-19 pandemic which was sweeping across the globe.But Trump says the team will finally be able to pose with pictures in the White House five years on.“I look forward to having the (Philadelphia) Eagles (for winning Super Bowl LIX in February). And one other thing, we’re going to have the Kansas City Chiefs after that, because they missed their turn because of COVID,�� Trump told Clay Travis, the founder of sports website Outkick, during an interview aboard Air Force One. He did not give a date for the visit. If the Chiefs do celebrate with Trump this year, they will be the second team to do so along with the Eagles.Philadelphia beat the Chiefs 40-22 in this year’s Super Bowl and after social media speculation suggesting the team would refuse the traditional visit, they officially accepted an invitation to visit the White House earlier this month.White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the Eagles�� visit would happen on April 28.Back in 2018, Philadelphia decided not to celebrate the victory with Trump, who was in his first term in office at the time.CNN contributed to this report
