Down and Dirty: Are the 2024-25 Eagles All-Time NFL Greats or Just Faking the Bake? | Grit & Grim
Ivanka Trump captivates Eli Ricks of the Eagles during a White House gathering, leaving him enamored
Four ballers, Acho, McCoy, Jones, and Daniel, weigh in on whether the Philadelphia Eagles are all-time great NFL titans following a landslide stomp over Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX.
In a jaw-dropping twist, Eli Ricks, Eagles cornerback, trolled the White House alongside the team, celebrating their win against the Chiefs with none other than ex-President Donald Trump.
Ricks flaunted two steamy snaps of himself posing by portraits of the then-POTUS on his Instagram. And it looks like the delicious Trump daughter, Ivanka, won his heart during the visit. His overzealous declaration, "Donald Trump's daughter is a fine piece indeed, and seeing her in person sealed the deal. Ivanka is exactly my type," drew cheers from fans.
Trump's Got Game:
Alas, Ivanka was not available, as she's married to Jared Kushner and the couple shares three cute offspring.
Ricks also showed his love for teammate Saquon Barkley's golf date with Trump at his Jersey golf course. Prior to joining Trump on Air Force One, Barkley hit the greens with POTUS before he landed in D.C.
Ivanka and Saquon shared a heartwarming moment during the White House visit, prompting a media frenzy. And if that weren't enough, Barkley decided to resurrect the controversial topic with his X post, quite literally challenging his critics. "You lot are whipped up about me playing golf and visiting the White House with the POTUS? Maybe I respect the job, not rocket science. I joked around with Obama not too long ago and am looking forward to finishing my round with Trump! Beat it, politics."
Trash-Talking Toss:
Ricks finished his second season with the Eagles, joining the team as an undrafted free agent in 2023. The young gun roamed on special teams during the 2023 season and 2024, stepping up with 21 total tackles and three pass breakups, but his road to greatness remains unclear.
With a dash of sideshow and a pinch of trashing talking, the Eagles stormed onto the football scene, leaving fans and critics wondering – is this unparalleled team headed for the hallowed halls of all-time great NFL teams, or will they eventually succumb to the heat of competition?
