Darius Slay is fully embracing the Steelers’ desire that he serve as a leader in the secondary, extending into summer. According to Shelby Cassesse of WPXI, some of the young defensive backs confirmed that they plan to work with Slay over the break following mandatory minicamp. While Joey Porter Jr. is the name that most often comes up, that also includes Beanie Bishop Jr., among others.
Looking for a veteran who wouldn’t hurt their compensatory formula, the Steelers signed Darius Slay this offseason. The Eagles released him in a somewhat surprising move, and they brought him in on a one-year, $10 million deal.
