Allen Park — Following Darius Slay's postgame comments, where he appeared to be questioning the team's defensive scheme, Lions coach Matt Patricia said he talked to the Pro Bowl corner and feels the comments may have been blown out of proportion.
“I think some of that is not really accurate, as far as how the comments were taken and what he said," Patricia said during a Tuesday conference call. "I talked to Darius afterwards and we have a great relationship with that and where we are defensively.
After a 31-24 loss to Oakland on Sunday, Slay suggested the defense wasn't maximizing the talent of the players.
