Update: Fox News issued a statement Tuesday morning apologizing for using 'unrelated footage' of the Eagles in its coverage.

Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Chris Long blasted Fox News on Tuesday morning after the network showed photos of players kneeling to pray while implying they were kneeling during the national anthem.

In a video segment posted late Monday night -- hours after President Donald Trump rescinded the Eagles' invitation to visit the White House on Tuesday -- Fox News showed photos of players, including tight end Zach Ertz (who responded earlier Tuesday), Jordan Matthews and Corey Clement, kneeling while a broadcaster talked about the cancellation.

The photos were of players praying pregame. No Eagles player kneeled during the national anthem before a regular season game.

Long hasn't been quiet on much over the past few seasons, and that didn't change in his response to Fox News.

"Imagine wanting to please the boss so very badly that you run stills of guys knelt down PRAYING during pregame," Long tweeted. "Not one Eagles player knelt for the anthem this yr. Keep carrying his water to sow division while misrepresenting Christian men. Aren't many of your viewers.. nevermind

"You're complicit in PLAYING America. This is just another day at the office for you, though. Most players (and there were many players, many players...) that wanted to opt out had decided long b4 the anthem rule came down. It wasn't discussed once in our meetings about the visit."

Long was one of the first Eagles to say he wouldn't attend a White House visit if the team won Super Bowl LII. In a podcast appearance before the game, Long said he wouldn't visit Washington.

"No," Long said. "I'm not going to the White House. Are you kidding me?"

Long also passed on an invitation to visit Trump at the White House last year after he won Super Bowl LI with the New England Patriots. He explained that decision in a YouTube video.

"My son grows up, and I believe the legacy of our president is going to be what it is, I don't want him to say, 'Hey dad, why'd you go [to the White House] when you knew the right thing was to not go?'" Long said.

Long was the first white player to participate in a national anthem demonstration during Week 2 of the preseason after violence at a white nationalist rally in his hometown of Charlottesville, Va., left one woman dead.

Long earned praise from former president Barack Obama after he donated his 2017 salary to charity. The first six game checks funded scholarships in Charlottesville, and the final 10 regular-season game checks went to four organizations in Boston, Philadelphia and St. Louis.
