Buffalo Bills Pledge: 'We’re Chasing the Vince Lombardi Trophy!
This was a brutal beat for Buffalo all around.
After weird Bills saga, Darius Slay reveals only NFL team he'll play for in 2026 originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . Darius Slay never showed up to the Buffalo Bills .
Midway through the 2025 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers placed Slay on waivers. The Bills claimed the veteran cornerback. But the saga was just beginning.
Slay refused to report to Buffalo. Instead, he didn't play the rest of the season. Now, he wants to get back on the field, but there's only one team he'll do it for: the Philadelphia Eagles .
Slay played for the Eagles in 2024 and capped that season with a Super Bowl title. In 2025, he left for the Steelers, but he actually ended his season by attending an Eagles playoff game. Clearly, Slay has an affinity for Philadelphia that isn't matched by his overall desire to play football wherever it takes him.
