Philadelphia Eagles captain Darius Slay had a great start to February, helping Philly take down the back-to-back defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.

Unfortunately, March is getting underway with the star defensive back looking for a new home ahead of the official start of the new NFL year.

The Eagles announced on Monday that Slay has been released by the team.

Slay spent five seasons in Philadelphia, earning three Pro Bowl nods, winning two conference championships, and this year's Super Bowl. John Clark of NBC Sports Philly, meanwhile, reported Slay could return to the Eagles if the two sides can agree on a smaller contract.

The veteran cornerback's wife Jennifer Slay, however, shared her heartbroken response to the news on social media.
