On Monday, President Donald Trump recognized Barkley and the rest of the team at the White House. Trump brought up Barkley's name specifically during the ceremony, recounting how he told Barkley's former team (the New York Giants) to retain him by any means necessary.

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 Giants went 3-14 and still found their way to the White House with the Super Bowl champion Eagles on Monday.
