Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius came to "Slay" today in Foxborough.
After the Eagles' first drive downfield led by Jalen Hurts resulted in a sack and field goal, Slay made up for it with a big play on defense.
Slay snagged a pass from Patriots' Mac Jones intended for Kendrick Bourne and ran for 70 yards into the end zone for a touchdown, giving the Eagles a 10-point lead over the Pats in the first quarter.
According to NBC Sports' Dave Zangaro, Slay's 70-yard pick-six is now the longest interception return of his career.
That one marked the third pick-six of Slay's 11-year career.
The five-time Pro Bowler has now logged eight interceptions and four touchdowns with Philadelphia.
