The Eagles are releasing veteran cornerback Darius Slay as a salary cap casualty. Philadelphia save roughly $4 million with the release of the 34-year old. Slay has no intention of retiring, so he will be available to sign.

The Philadelphia Eagles got things going with their offseason with the release of longtime cornerback Darius Slay, starting the restructuring of the NFL's No. 1 defense. Slay will be 35 next January and was designated as a post-June 1 cut. The Eagles will save $4.3 million against the 2025 salary cap and $17.8 million for 2026.
