Darius Slay is walking back some of his concerns about the Eagles opening their season in Brazil.
On an episode of his “Big Play Slay” podcast last week, Slay said he did not want to go to Brazil and questioned why the NFL would put a game in a country with “a crime rate this high.”
Slay’s apology was posted on X, which means it would make it hard for any Brazilians in the country to see it;Friday’s game in Sao Paulo against the Packers will be the first time an NFL game has been played in South America.
