Philadelphia Eagles CB Darius Slay reacts to the Eagles’ comeback victory against the New Orleans Saints in Week 3. Slay discusses the Saints’ dirty hits on him and Eagles WR DaVonte Smith, both of which led to potentially serious injuries, the incredible game-changing touchdown from RB Saquon Barkley, and the career performance from TE Dallas Goedert. He also defends QB Jalen Hurts’ interceptions and explains why Saints S Tyrann Mathieu is the best overall defensive player from his draft class, plus why Slay thinks Quinyon Mitchell is going to be an All-Pro corner, possibly as soon as this year. He also talks about the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers losing their games, the Minnesota Vikings and Pittsburgh Steelers unlikely 3-0 records, and more.
