PHILADELPHIA — Jalen Hurts, Jordan Mailata and several other Eagles players like the mantra, “Keep the main thing, the main thing.”

The main thing we learned from Thursday night’s preseason win over the Cincinnati Bengals, besides further confirmation that Tanner McKee can be a starting quarterback in this league, is that the Eagles may have a problem at cornerback.

The backstory is that they released veteran Darius Slay in the offseason, opting out of his contract with a year left. At age 34, “Big Play” Slay could still play and was an outspoken leader in the locker room. He finished last season with a total of 49 tackles (including 39 solo), 13 passes defended and a forced fumble in 14 starts, and he broke up five passes and had a pick during their playoff run to the Super Bowl.
