Darius Slay Announces His Retirement

Cornerback Darius Slay said recently that no team other than the Eagles should call him about playing in 2026, but now it seems that even the Eagles shouldn't bother reaching out to him.

In a post to X.com on Monday, Slay announced that he is retiring from the NFL. Slay wrote that he has reached the time for a "new chapter" and that he's "ready to turn the page" on an NFL career that began as a Lions second-round pick in 2013.

Slay remained with the Lions through the 2019 season and made an All-Pro team before moving on to the Eagles in a trade in 2020. He helped the Eagles to an NFC title after the 2022 season and won a Super Bowl in his final game with the team.

Slay signed a one-year deal with the Steelers in 2025, but was waived by a mutual agreement in December. He was claimed off of waivers by the Bills and declined to report amid speculation that he hoped to return to the Eagles.

Slay had 655 tackles, 28 interceptions, two forced fumbles, six fumble recoveries and six touchdowns over the course of his career.
