Daily News | Darius Slay: ‘Of course I want an extension with the Eagles. I love the Eagles.’
Eagles Pro Bowl cornerback Darius Slay is looking to stay with the team on a potential extension as he heads into a contract year.released Friday. “Of course I want an extension with the Eagles. I love the Eagles. They took another chance on me trading for me, and I panned out very well of course. But yeah, I love that money, so of course I’m going to be talking about it this offseason. That’s everyone, that’s we all do when we’ve got one year left on our deal.
“I love Philly, man. I plan on staying on Philly, but if it don’t happen, I know I got one year left here. I’d love to stay in Philly for sure.”Howie Roseman’s Eagles offseason to-do list: Pay Jalen Hurts and work around that new contract Slay is under contract through 2023, although he has void years tacked onto the back end of his deal to offset cap charges. The Eagles will likely need to restructure Slay’s contract to clear cap space this offseason. He counts for $26 million against next season’s salary cap, but the Eagles could create about $12 million in space by converting his base salary into signing bonus.
Doing so would kick the can down the road and result in Slay’s cap charge increasing in 2024 after his current deal expires. The charge is already at $13 million because of the void years that stretch into 2026, and would effectively put the Eagles in the same situation next offseason but without Slay under contract.
