Bennett has no fear of backlash if he skips White House trip (Yahoo Sports)

Patriots tight end Martellus Bennett says he is not worried about upsetting team owner Robert Kraft if he doesn't attend New England's trip to the White House as Super Bowl champions. Bennett said after the Patriots' 34-28 win over the Falcons on Sunday night that he hasn't made a decision about whether he would go to the traditional meet-and-greet with the president. It will be the first visit of a Super Bowl champion to Washington since Donald Trump was sworn into office.
