On Wednesday, the Bills claimed cornerback Darius Slay on waivers . The team that released Slay in the offseason tried to get him, too.

Via Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, the Eagles put in a waivers claim for Slay. But the Bills had priority.

Slay’s contract costs only $350,000 for the balance of the year, since the bulk of his 2025 compensation was paid by the Steelers in the form of a signing bonus.

A first-round pick in 2013, the 34-year-old Slay spent seven years with the Lions and five with the Eagles. He’s a one-time All-Pro and a six-time Pro Bowler.

Slay appeared in 10 games with nine starts for the Steelers. He was inactive on Sunday, for Pittsburgh’s game against his new team.
