The Steelers agreed to terms with Darius Slay on a one-year, $10 million contract.

Slay was released by the Eagles after they couldn't find a trade partner. The veteran corner will join the secondary of an already strong Steelers defense. He performed well in the Eagles Super Bowl run last year as well, bringing that experience to Pittsburgh.

Slay said a couple of weeks ago he is wanting to play one more season. The Eagles will save $4.3 million against the cap with his release. He will be designated as a post-June 1 release

Philadelphia Eagles star cornerback Darius Slay Jr. said that he "wants to play one more year, for sure." Though he is uncertain if it will be with the Eagles, he said he would like to return, but a reunion with Detroit could be an option as well.

Slay's three-year Pro Bowl streak ended in 2024, and he had made six in the previous seven seasons. The veteran CB turned 34 on New Year's Day, but he has still been productive with eight interceptions and 50 passes defended since turning 30 (the last four seasons). He is under contract for 2025 but could be a candidate for an offseason cut or a contract restructure ($13.78 million cap hit in 2025).
