Darius Slay Fantasy

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay (forearm) didn't suffer a major forearm injury in the Week 4 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars and has a chance to play in Week 5 against the Arizona Cardinals. Meanwhile, cornerback Avonte Maddox (ankle), who suffered an ankle sprain last week, is up in the air for Week 5, according to sources. Maddox could miss another game, but his injury isn't long-term. It's good news for the Eagles secondary as they try to remain the only undefeated team in the league heading into a matchup against Arizona. If Slay is able to play, it will be bad news for Cardinals No. 1 receiver Marquise Brown. The Eagles defense/special teams has been a must-start fantasy unit this season.

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay (forearm) and tackle Jordan Mailata (shoulder) are both questionable to return against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4. Slay has totaled eight tackles and two interceptions this season while Mailata has been pivotal in protecting Philadelphia's playmakers. The Eagles will hope both players are able to return during a challenging clash with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay has cleared the league's concussion protocol, according to head coach Nick Sirianni. As a result, Slay will play on Sunday against the division-rival New York Giants in Week 12 action. Slay has scored touchdowns in back-to-back weeks with a fumble returned for a touchdown in Week 10 and an interception returned for another score last Sunday before he suffered a concussion. The veteran defensive back now has three touchdowns on the season and 39 total tackles. His return is good news for a defense that is trending up in recent weeks, and they'll be a strong play this Sunday against the Giants, who are expected to be without wide receivers Kadarius Toney (quadriceps) and Sterling Shephard (quadriceps). Expect Slay to match up with Giants receiver Kenny Golladay on the outside.
