Broncos Book Coach Ticket For Trevathan's Flight To White House

By Ryan Mayer

CHICAGO (CBS4) - The Denver Broncos are making their champion's trip to the White House to meet with the president on Monday. Some of the players won't be joining the team, like former QB Brock Osweiler (busy with Texans OTA's) and CB Aqib Talib who is recovering from his gunshot wound over the weekend.

One former Bronco who will be in attendance is new Chicago Bears linebacker Danny Trevathan. Trevathan left the team via free agency earlier this year and he seemed pretty excited at first to be headed to the White House.

However, that excitement quickly turned to some disbelief as apparently the flight that the team booked for him wasn't in the best accommodations.

Well, I guess that should come as no surprise considering he decided to head for greener pastures (and more money) in Chicago where he received a four-year, $24.5 million deal. All fun aside, Trevathan does seem genuinely happy to be joining the team for this trip.
