Eagles News: Darius Slay finishes outside the top 20 in NFL cornerback rankings

Cornerback Rankings: The 32 best outside cornerbacks entering the 2021 NFL season - PFF
23. Darius Slay, Philadelphia Eagles. After profiling as one of the top cornerbacks in the league from 2014 to 2018, Slay has taken a noticeable step back the past two seasons. His PFF grade dropped from 90.0 from 2014 to 2018 in Detroit to just 59.5 across the last two years. It’s worth pointing out that Slay frequently draws the opposing team’s top receiving option in single coverage, and his 97 single coverage targets over the past two seasons is a top-five mark at the position.
