Philadelphia Eagles star running back Saquon Barkley told reporters he declined an invitation to serve on President Donald Trump’s Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition. The clarification came days after Trump signed an executive order bringing back the Presidential Fitness Test for students in public schools and mentioned Barkley as one of many prominent sports figures on the council.

In April, Barkley drew criticism from fans for golfing with Trump and then joining the president for a helicopter flight before the championship-winning Eagles’ official White House visit. The running back clapped back at critics on social media, noting that he also golfed with former President Barack Obama several months prior.
