Eli Ricks is smitten.

The Philadelphia Eagles player came across Ivanka Trump during his team’s visit to the White House, quickly taking to X to share his thoughts on Trump’s daughter.

“Donald trump daughter is beautiful damn,” Ricks tweeted on Monday afternoon, following the team’s Super Bowl champion ceremony.

In a follow-up tweet, he wrote, “After seeing her in person Ivanka is exactly my type.”

He also retweeted photos taken of Ivanka at the White House.

The 23-year-old cornerback also hopped on his Instagram Story to post a selfie in front of a painting of Donald Trump.

Unfortunately, Ivanka is taken. The 43-year-old married Jared Kushner in 2009, and the couple shares three kids: 13-year-old Arabella, 10-year-old Joseph, and 8-year-old Theodore.

The Philadelphia Eagles’ White House visit has been the talk of the town, particularly since they declined Trump’s invitation in 2018 following their last Super Bowl win. But it seems Trump has won the team over.

Over the weekend, Saquon Barkley was seen golfing with Trump in New Jersey. After receiving backlash from fans, he defended his trip.

“Lol some people are really upset cause I played golfed and flew to the White House with the PRESIDENT. Maybe I just respect the office, not a hard concept to understand," Barkley tweeted. “Just golfed with Obama not too long ago… and look forward to finishing my round with Trump ! Now ya get out my mentions with all this politics and have amazing day.”

Last week, at the 2025 TIME 100 gala, a reporter asked Jalen Hurts if he was attending the White House celebration. He dodged the question, responding with an “Um” as he looked around. According to TMZ, the QB wasn’t present at the Super Bowl celebration, with the White House blaming “scheduling conflicts.”
