Darius Slay was a heck of a player.

Thirteen seasons. Six Pro Bowl trips. One All-Pro nod. Two Super Bowl appearances. Twenty eight career interceptions. League leader in passes defender and interceptions (2017) and fumble return yards and touchdowns (2021).

Slay was a lot of things: A No. 1 cornerback on very good defenses, durable, a player young guys in his position group looked up to, and confident. He’s a borderline Eagles Hall of Famer.

He also belongs on any list of the best trades Howie Roseman has ever made.
