Saquon Barkley is addressing the backlash he's received for hangin' with Donald Trump on Sunday ahead of the Eagles' White House visit on Monday, making it clear he respects anyone who holds the office of the President!
The Philadelphia Eagles star running back was spotted with POTUS this weekend, playing golf at his club in Bedminster, chitchatting at lunch, and even flying on Marine One -- the presidential chopper -- with Trump.
47 even joked he wanted to race Barkley, but decided not to. Smart!
Despite it appearing to be a friendly meetup by all accounts, the encounter stirred up controversy among Barkley fans, with one even calling it a "terrible and disheartening decision" by Saquon.
