Detroit Lions CB Darius Slay continues to work with the first-team defense with CB Ron Bartell (shoulder) sidelined. The rookie said Monday, July 29, he has learned a lot while covering WR Calvin Johnson. ‘I’m learning a lot from him,’ Slay said. ‘He’s a big, aggressive receiver, so I have to get my hands on him. I love how he competes. That’s my goal, to compete every time, so I love going against him one-on-one. I’d like to go against him every day, if I could.’
