Anthem Protester, BLM Activist Malcolm Jenkins Praises Jalen Hurts for Skipping White House Visit

Former NFL champion Malcolm Jenkins has praised Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts for skipping his team’s Super Bowl victory celebration at the White House.

President Trump welcomed the Philadelphia Eagles to the White House on Monday, but Jalen Hurts was not in attendance due to alleged “scheduling conflicts.” In an article  on Substack, Malcolm Jenkins, who protested the U.S. national anthem and declined an invitation to the White House after winning the Super Bowl with the Eagles in 2018, praised Hurts for positioning himself as a “selfless leader.”
