Darius Slay and Matt Patricia didn't see eye to eye while together on the Detroit Lions.
But reunited on the Philadelphia Eagles, Slay says things between them have been "cordial."
"It's another day at the office," he told Jenna Malinowski of the Detroit Free Press on Tuesday. "We both got the same goal, just going out there to compete and win a championship, so that's the main focus."
Slay played under Patricia in the 2018 and '19 seasons, when Patricia was Detroit's head coach, and recounted an incident to the Detroit Free Press in 2020, from their first season together, that caused Slay to lose respect for Patricia:
"He told me in front of the whole team, in the team meeting room, showed clips of me in practice getting a ball caught on me or so in practice.
