Darius Slay exited Sunday's matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars with an unspecified injury during the first quarter. 

After the game, Slay was officially designated with a forearm injury that forced him into the locker room during the first half of the game. 

#Eagles CB Avonte Maddox, who suffered an ankle sprain last week, has this week's game up in the air, sources say. Could miss one, but not long-term. Meanwhile, CB Darius Slay did not suffer a major forearm injury, and he has a chance to play this week.
