The Philadelphia Eagles are reportedly set to release six-time Pro Bowl cornerback Darius Slay in a cost-cutting move.

The move will save the Eagles $4.3 million against their salary cap in 2025.

Slay started every game last season, recording 13 passes defensed and 49 tackles.

Slay has been included in six Pro Bowls overall, including three straight with the Detroit Lions (2017-19).

He started all four playoff games for the Super Bowl LIX champions and made 14 tackles and five passes defensed.

Slay has 28 career interceptions and 160 passes defensed in 177 games (167 starts) with the Lions (2013-19) and Eagles. He was drafted in the second round by Detroit in 2013.
