Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Eli Ricks made headlines after attending a celebratory White House visit on Monday.

The 23-year-old Super Bowl champion shared his excitement about the experience, particularly his reaction to seeing Ivanka Trump in person.

Eli Ricks Shares His White House Visit

The event, hosted by former President Donald Trump, welcomed the Eagles in honor of their Super Bowl victory. Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, was in attendance alongside her family, and it appears she caught Ricks' attention.

Ricks reposted several photos of Ivanka from the event and wrote, “After seeing her in person, Ivanka is exactly my type.” He followed up with another post adding, “Donald Trump daughter is Beautiful...damn.”

According to TMZ, Ivanka, 43, wore a light blue suit and appeared at the ceremony in support of her father and the Eagles’ championship win.

While Ivanka’s appearance drew compliments, it’s worth noting she has been married to Jared Kushner since 2009 and shares three children with him.

President Trump Jokes with Team, Ivanka Weighs In

President Trump, never one to shy away from humor, took the opportunity to throw jabs at NFL rivals. He poked fun at Taylor Swift over her team’s Super Bowl loss and also criticized the New York Giants for trading Saquon Barkley to Philadelphia, calling Barkley his “new buddy.”

Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts was notably absent from the event, with the White House citing “scheduling conflicts” as the reason.

"Celebrating with champions at the White House today!" Ivanka said on her Instagram post. "Congratulations to the [Eagles] on an amazing season and Super Bowl win!

"My highlight of the day? Theo challenging [Barkley] to a race in the Rose Garden after my father wisely demurred! Thanks, Saquon, for being such a great sport!"

Saquon Barkley Responds to Criticism Over Trump Meetup

Running back Saquon Barkley stirred controversy over the weekend after spending time with Trump before the official White House visit. Barkley, 28, played golf with the former president at his Bedminster club, joined him for lunch, and even flew on Marine One.

Critics on social media accused him of making a "terrible and disheartening decision," with one user claiming, “Money and power corrupt the soul.”

Barkley, however, stood firm. In a post on X, he wrote, “Lol some people are really upset cause I played golf and flew to the White House with the PRESIDENT. Maybe I just respect the office, not a hard concept to understand. Just golfed with [Barack] Obama not too long ago…and look forward to finishing my round with Trump!” 

He ended the message with, “Now ya get out my mentions with all this politics and have an amazing day.”
