Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay had an interesting offseason, getting released by the Philadelphia Eagles before ultimately being re-signed in Philly.
But on Saturday, he revealed just how close he came to joining the Baltimore Ravens in free agency on his Big Play Slay podcast (4:25 mark):
"I was almost—this close—a Baltimore Raven. I was this close. But I wanted to be an Eagle, I stayed an Eagle because I knew me and [Eagles executive vice president and general manager Howie Roseman] would figure something out. But the Baltimore Ravens were the first team that called, and they offered just what I wanted.
