Detroit Lions cornerback Darius Slay wants to upgrade his nickname from “Big Play Slay” to something that will more suitably represent his coverage skills.
According to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, Slay believes no one alive can get the better of him.
“I can cover anybody on this planet. I am The Earth. Call me The Earth.
“I’m The Earth. But Big Play Earth.”
That statement is too good to leave untouched. The 24-year-old is entering his third NFL season and isn’t exactly a household name, which makes his comments even more bold.
