Chiefs' Andy Reid to Visit Donald Trump at White House: 'It's Quite an Honor'

Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid confirmed that he'll visit the White House after winning the first Super Bowl of his career Sunday.

"I mean, I'll be there," Reid said after Sunday's 31-20 win over the San Francisco 49ers, per TMZ Sports. "If they're inviting us, I'll be there. It's quite an honor."

While it was once customary for championship teams in a variety of sports to visit the White House, it's become a polarizing act since Donald Trump has become president. Neither recent NBA champions Toronto Raptors or Golden State Warriors visited the White House after winning their titles.

The Philadelphia Eagles had a small contingent ready to meet Trump before the visit was canceled. 

The New England Patriots visited the White House in 2017—although without Tom Brady due to "personal family matters"—but didn't after last year's championship due to scheduling conflicts. 

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman indicated before the game he would turn down a visit if his team had won.

"We've got a long way between now and then, but I doubt it," the veteran said, per Scott Ostler of the San Francisco Chronicle.

However, the Chiefs have seemingly been more welcoming to the idea.

"That would be great to go to the White House," receiver Tyreek Hill said after the game, per Herbie Teope of the Kansas City Star. "I've never been to (Washington) D.C., so that would be great."

"Any time we get the opportunity to represent Kansas City the right way, represent our teammates the right way, I don't see any wrong in that," safety Tyrann Mathieu said last week, per Mike Rosenstein of NJ.com.

This likely adds up to the Chiefs becoming the first NFL team to visit Trump in three years.
