San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman suggested Thursday that it is unlikely he will go to the White House if the Niners beat the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV.

According to Scott Ostler of the San Francisco Chronicle, Sherman said: "I haven't thought about it. We've got a long way between now and then, but I doubt it."

Many players have boycotted the traditional team White House visit after winning a championship since Donald Trump became president. Even entire teams, most notably the Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia Eagles, did not visit with Trump after invitations were initially extended.
