The Eagles may have moved on from Darius Slay, but his wife, Jennifer, still has love for Phildelphia. Just as the team was getting ready to play the Cowboys on Thursday, Jennifer posted a message on X.

“Go where you’re appreciated…” Jennifer tweeted.

She explained its meaning in another X post two hours later.

“We don’t play Philly this season so I can say this I think… no disrespect to current team, seriously but I have to say it…” Jennifer tweeted.

She posted another message after one minute.

“GO BIRDS! Goodluck to ya’ll! Will always love and support the crew!” Jennifer tweeted.

Darius was a big part of the Eagles’ 2024 Super Bowl win. However, the team released him in March to make room for younger players like Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean.

He signed a one-year $10 million deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers on March 13, joining stars like Jalen Ramsey and Joey Porter Jr.

Philadelphia will kick off its 2025 NFL season against the Dallas Cowboys at Lincoln Financial Field.

Meanwhile, the Steelers will begin their campaign on Sunday versus the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.

Darius Slay's wife Jennifer made her feelings known after Eagles released CB

When Philadelphia released Darius Slay on March 10, his wife, Jennifer, shared a photo of them, celebrating the Eagles' Super Bowl win over the Chiefs.

"Philly," Jennifer wrote on Instagram.

Slay's release came just 29 days after the Super Bowl victory.

He joined Philadelphia in 2020 after he was traded by the Detroit Lions, and spent five seasons with the franchise.

Even though Slay was let go by the Eagles, Jennifer remains close with the players' wives and girlfriends.

When A.J. Brown proposed to his girlfriend, Kelsey Riley, in a fancy celebration, where John Legend sang for them, Jennifer shared the video.

“The Browns ❤️❤️,” Jennifer tweeted in May

Darius started dating Jennifer in 2015 and they got married on June 16, 2018.
