Slay has been with the Eagles since 2020. He was the No. 36 overall pick in the second round of the 2013 NFL Draft, going to the Detroit Lions. He spent the 2013-19 seasons with the Lions before heading to Philadelphia.
In 2022, Slay played in 17 games in the regular season for the Eagles, recording 3 interceptions, 14 pass breakups and 55 total tackles.
Where he ends up next remains to be seen, but he’ll likely draw some attention in free agency if and when the Eagles make the decision to release him official.
