Another week, another electrifying defensive performance from Big Play Slay. With his 51 yard pick 6, he became the first defensive player with TD’s in back to back weeks for the Eagles since Sheldon Brown in 2009.

Slay now has 3 touchdowns on the season(he had one in his NFL career prior to this incredible run). To put that in perspective, that’s more than George Kittle, Darren Waller, and Keenan Allen to name a few. He is in rare territory. Slay is only the second Eagles defender to score at least three touchdowns in a season. He is one behind Eric Allen, who had 4 in 1993, for tying the franchise record.

Slay is not only making his case for the Pro Bowl, but he has entered his name into the discussion for Defensive player of the year.

Enjoy his three highlight reel touchdowns.

Slay spent 7 seasons in Detroit, and this TD was special.

Even the mile high air couldn’t slow Slay down.

A back breaker for the Saints. Slay with a pick six, 36 seconds before halftime.
