any man can get a girl pregnant but it takes a real man to father it.Good job u raised a true Man
chemosong' ndiema not any man if they are missing 15 present of there testical.
(Logan Paul)
Well if thots stopping having kids out of wedlock this wouldn't be an issue. Don Lemon, from CNN finally spoke up, the greatest threat to black people is that 72% of kids are born to a single parent.

Unless there infertile
Any man can father a child and become a "FATHER". It takes a real man to father a child and become a "DAD"!! There are FATHERS everywhere. There needs to be DADS everywhere also. Big difference!!!!
chemosong' ndiema them ***
His mom was 13 when she had him...oh my :/ props to her though she raised a good man
Balenciaga Brenda right
Gabriel Martinez stfu
She could have easily had an abortion but made the right choice and raised a great son.
@Gabriel Martinez Why do you have to be soooooo rude, like OMG
Gabriel Martinez well you talking stuff guess what uno reverse card
Darius Slay's mom was a Grandma at 29 wowwwwwwww
PrimeMobile jesus
28. She's 13 years older than him.
Thats crazy my parents had me when they were 29
why shocked?????
Now thats a grandma that can get it 😎😎👌😂 Haha nah im jp DSlay
His son holding his baby sister like she's the most precious thing ever is how you know they were raised right
Just goes to show you. It's not about how you start, it's about how you pick up and move forward
AGREED !!!
tru that
Agreee
Well said.
Facts
His children are very lucky to have a great loving father
And mother. Their kids are growing up watching their beautiful relationship and how that treat each other. Love is so important for kids.
Blessed*
Especially in this day and age..
Vern Fleshman yeah but even I had Goodell on my pay roll till he suspended me
@Thirsty Girl69 I was also wondering that
His mama saved his future, bless his mama and his wife completes him ugh this is a true love story. 🥰❤
My wife passed away at 39
I got 2 kids on my own
This story gives me hope
That's so sad
Sad that people think men don’t do this it’s such an insult
Sending much love, light and discernment! God Bless you 🙏🏾!

No one's going to comment on that catch she made? She's got better hands than any of the Bills receivers.
Exactly one handed
Better than Dez Bryant and amari cooper
Chill on my mans Zay Jones LMAO
Hahaha yes
😂😂
I deeply appreciate how this young man is projecting a positive image for black men out there. Don't allow yourselves to be defined by what society wants you to be; be motivated to aspire to what you can be: "A role model" for others to look to. I am so happy about this outcome
Damn his mamma was a gramma at age 28!! Kuddos to her for raising a good strong loyal young man! And same to him for raising his own.
A man providing for his family is respectful!
I see you Amos
Very much indeed
I c u everywhere! Especially in FlemLo’s vids
FACTS
A man providing for his family is what’s expected
There are a hundred things I like do about this interview. Here are a few:
- the interviewer is relaxed, laid back, in jeans, respectful, human
- the interviewer and -ee are presented as equals - not as an ignorant black man and a patronizing white woman, nor as a famous man and a tittering girl
- the relationship between mother and son is portrayed as being one of mutual respect, encouragement and support
- neither the mothers nor son are demonized for having children young - the focus, instead, is placed on their strength, determination and accomplishments
- the relationship between the couple is portrayed as strong, mutually respectful, supportive and encouraging - they’re a team
- the wife is presented in her own strengths and career
Everyone in this interview is presented as strong and valued. And I loved it. They had their obstacles, they stood together, they were stronger for it.
Excellent Analysis DanDann! I LOVE everything about this interview also. Very relaxed, laid back, nonjudgmental, genuine!
Also i like to add that he taught his son how to a young big brother at the agd 12. How about end when they were walk wiht the kids and his said i ll go shopping and you talk the kids home and he was cool with it. This is callex commuication. I want go point out that dee and the baby mom are good co parents and the fact he coukd have a wreckless but being his mom understand what took with her son and sat him down and taught how to be respondbilites. It helped with his current marriage as she had a child at 18. Need more black men. The interveiwer was flirting was dee but he didnt bit. Thats mom speaking and education her son
I agree. Great story and the way it is presented is really positive.
SPOT ON! AMAZING ANALYSIS!
the ultimate breakdown.... almost BillBelichickian like.
The positivity is contagious.
I'm so happy this man is an eagle now. He adds character to any room he steps in. That and he's funny as hell. I hope we can get him the ring he deserves this year.
“Don’t be limited by people who despise your growth, they want you to remain the same so they will feel comfortable.”
Sad but so true even those you love the most despise your growth when they don't realize that you want them to grow/go to the top with you. Glad I'm learning to stand on my own as a single mother of 6. This is so inspiring.
@@shawnikamobley2404 damn 6 kids
I can't wait to see what the end of my journey looks like

Bear down!
@@dannycarrillo7478 Lions
Much respect for this dude. Im single daddinng it up with a 7 year old and a 5 year old. Glad to see others step up and what not. I have even more respect for that man now
Congratulations brother. I was a single father. I have a 8 year old son, I raised him up until 6 all alone, then I ended up meeting my beautiful wife, she had an 8 year old daughter when we met, now we have a 10 year old and a 8 year old, but above all we have a beautiful family.
@@planbmindset9475 me and my kids mom split she hardly sees them I feel bad for the kids. I'm doing it all alone still lol. Raising these kids makes me happy so it doesnt bother me
God bless🤍

@@nathanwoodin6974 trump supporter toi
He has the most contagious smile.
This transcends football. This is what a truly good man looks like. I wish him a lot of healthy and successful years in the league, cause he is the type of man the sport needs most.
100% Agree! Ppl like him,Tom Brady and other passionate players make up the Sport and the Game of Football.
Exactly what I was about to say

Wow! Well Said!
I knew who the football player was, but I am so glad to now know the man. Respect to Darius! Good man
but dude is irresponsible lol
@@xengthao6823 are you kidding me? Maybe he wasn't responsible as a teenager, but he sure worked his ass off and became a man for his kids. #OnePride
@@craigpaulson3503 nah im not kidding dude had another child with another chick a few years back he wasn't young then
@@xengthao6823 he could afford it.
@AmarNathan he gets a job.
He's like a giddy kid and a worried adult at the same time. I'm happy his kids have such wonderful parents.
Wentz will definitely sign his game ball now that they're teammates. 😅
That's so crazy now he plays for the team and the quarterback life is something man 💯💪🏼🙏🦅🦅🦅🦅
jaqen h'ghar that’s what I’m thinking
aged like milk
ABOUT THAT
This didn’t age well
Who else thinks he looked like trey songz when he was younger
At 15 he looked like prince amukamura
He still resembles Trey Songz.
He still looks like him
No wonder he so good. Mans went against Calvin Johnson
Not just that, but he also went against marvin jones jr, anquan boldin, and golden tate that'll sharpen any cornerback in practice and give them confidence. Iron sharpens iron.
That's first thought flashing through my mind. He's against hell of guys. All that practices gives him great experience.
The funny thing is darrion is my best friend and I had no clue his dad was the football player till we had a sleep over
This guy just became my favorite player in the NFL.
It’s so funny how quickly young parents handle parenthood and become so responsible 👌🏽
Man had that chip on his shoulder and he didn't care. Just pulled through it man. mad respect big play slay

Much respect to this young man and his wife and family. 💯
Shout out to Darius mom, through her, he is truly a role model and family man.
This is truly inspirational. God i ask that u can continue to bless and protection this young man and his family. Please Lord.
@Thirsty Girl69 Your asking the wrong person.
@Thirsty Girl69 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes Allah is on UA-cam
@Thirsty Girl69 What God reads UA-cam comments?
Dream Big Squad lndiaNews viral
People can talk about him and his mom being young parents. Let's not forget he made it.
but most tho... so people need to stop acting like it's normal to have kids real young, that you can't afford
His wife seems so sweet.
I’ll say this once, but I’ll say it again, NFL Films produces some of the best content on UA-cam
That brotha deserve what he got going forreal 💯💯💯
Love to see young men handle there business.
Much respects young Brotha.
Their
Mike M stfu
Great job by Darius's mom, and great job on Darius being a great individual.
How ironic is it that he considers his best play an interception against Carson Wentz and now he is on the eagles
Now question is will he sign the ball?😂
Sean Harris he gotta sign that ball
Sam Lorenzo he gotta
Facts
Miss u bro
Beautiful relationship I love that your wife is not out there being flashy for the cameras which makes her more beautiful! Beautiful kids! YOU guys make sure you're praying together to have that stronger relationship! God bless! There's nothing like having a strong mother to stand by you!
💯🙏🏽 Amen
I will always love my Mom. She was a teenage mother who made sure she taught her daughters how to be independent strong educated women. God Bless you Slay and your new beautiful family.
Are we gonna talk about that catch at 6:25 😂
Acid Krraze I was like this has to be in the comments.
No
When Slay was picked up by the Eagles, I was thrilled. First, because he's a beast at corner and second because I knew his back story. A win/win for Philly
I had a lot of respect for him before this video. My respect went up about 1000x
but dude is irresponsible
Xeng Thao maybe when he was younger, but now he’s a man providing for his family and doing his best to make sure his kids don’t make the same choices that he did. People grow and mature a lot from age 15 into their 20s. I don’t see how he is irresponsible at all at this point in time
Just by a video. You need to look thru the deeper lens
r mac and why do you say that
Not necessarily a football fan, so I've never heard of this young man; but after hearing his story, and seeing him as a great father and husband; I am a fan of his.💯👏
@king black last time I checked he had his first kid at 15. Dont think he had millioms nor a 9 to 5 job. He did it while in highschool. So stop haitng white boy and stick to hockey
@king black he still made the choice to keep his child and sorry for callimg u a whiteboy
king black 🤣This man was 15 when he had his first child what money he had? Yes he has money now it’s called blessings and staying humble.
You should watch him now on the eagles, man is cooking
what an amazing father Darius is. always respected him on the field, but he's even better off of it.
“Your high school girlfriend tells you she’s pregnant, do you freak out “ 😂😂😂😂
He has such a cute smile 😂. He is a wonderful father
This young man can teach all the missing in action fathers how to be real men and great dads....hope they see this and start making the right changes.
You need to teach your son that the cycle must stop and stop at you.No more teen pregnacies.Thank you Darius for being a good dad and a good example. Never give up my brother. Keep fighting be good. God Bless.
God bless him and his family. He's a credit to America. Good for him.
Big play Slay✊🏾
I love him. His mom raised his so well.
So proud of Slay....His mom did an amazing job
This is what a man looks like. And his mom is a real woman. SO hard, God bless them.
I’m a packers fan but I got mad respect for him
As a Lions fan I always loved slay but now even more, what a g
LaCabra GOLIONS
Who is watching this after he was traded to the eagles 🦅
🦅🦅🦅🦅
LIL Aadit Panda prolly just you , slay been a g 💯
What an AWESOME MOM who together grew up learning, teaching and loving each other. Momma showed him how to be what a man is suppose to be. GOD BLESS YOU ALL
Damn, way to go Slay. His kids are lucky, a loving father and always making time even when he's on the road.
Jimmy Her
His life experiences so early on makes him who he is today. He is truly happy. Very admirable.
Damn, his wife is gorgeous.
I thought the same thing man...
Y! E! S!
HybridReactz nobody is hitting on slay
Get a lil arm on her
you are to babe
Starts with his mom making the best out of a tough situation and still being such a positive role model.
This is extremely motivating and inspirational. What a great dude! I'm happy for him and his family. 🙌🏾🙏🏾💪🏾
Same
His children are blessed to have him and he’s blessed to have his children ❤️ amazing story...
That baby girl is gonna be so spoiled, loved and protected by his older brothers and his daddy lol
Kudos to his mom, he turned out to be a great man of responsibility 👍🏽 I'm proud of him.
6:24 she got better catching skills than Kelvin Benjamin
JIGOKU KIRĀ better than obj
LMAO kelvin benjamin is ass
That’s the point
Because kelvin Benjamin has a sorry quarterback who can’t get it to him
MAURICE MOTON I’ve seen kelvin drop wide open passes in the end zone
Honestly. My new favorite cornerback right here. Not just how good he is but his heart is why I love him a person.
Zorxe until you hear the next guys story lol
“dezirae can’t do no wrong in my eyes”
besides when #2 comes around in the diaper
Love this - very inspirational and respectful interview. It's not about how you start, it's about how you finish.
Maybe it's how you start and finish..15 having kids not something I would endorse.. and not saying that's what your doing..
Ya this interviewer was really good, really listened to him and asked him good questions
Beautiful family, and great story!!!
The NFL should showcase this man , incredibly likeable , and inspirational
Damn this whole family looks so cute and good. The dad sounds so nice. And the mom is so comforting ❤️😩
Slay is now my top 5 cb. My father a deadbeat and he had me over the age 18. Slay you taking care of your son man all the respects for you
Packer fan here, a man who put his family first is a man amongst men.
😂😂 Why are you so stupid
@@shak9558 how is he stupid
@G. C. and if you don't believe in God?
6:25 what a catch!
Salia Berthe ...she is right?! 😆
How blessed are children to have a father who cares and works hard for his family..
Philly is gonna take care of you bro.!!! I'm so excited for this
Good story, responsibility is what life is all about; his mother did a wonderful job.
As a Packers fan, I only hate him in gameday. He is a gentleman and a great father. Success and great career.
even though he’s with the eagles now he will always be a lion in my eyes. Thank you slay for what you did for the city of Detroit 🙏🏻
Slay’s story is making me cry! What a good guy he is! He deserves everything in life!
This is an inspirational story to show anybody to never give up on your Dreams or Responsibilities......And A Big Salute to His Mom for pushing him
Erica Jones mi
I can truly respect his mother and him for stepping up at a very young age. Bless him and his beautiful family!!💕
I love what he said!! " I go out there to have fun. People are like 'I don't feel like going to practice' and I'm like 'well I do!!" He has so much gratitude.
darius seems so sweet and caring. his kids are growing up with a great dad.
Great story. Learning on-the-fly. Now he is the best at what he does at work, and at home! Doesn't get any better than that.
This is so motivating when he as some much on his shoulders and he takes care of children and he takes care of his career.🏈😱🙂
Goodness gracious, what a beautiful family!!!! So in love with them. 😘😚❤️👏
Welcome to the E A G L E S!!! You deserve the big contract big dog!! You’re an exceptional football player and an even better human being!!
I love this guy! The way he loves life and his family. #OnePride
I have so much respect for him hope somebody like him See's this and gets encouragement
As a lions fan I’m allowed to say the lions are stupid for trading him
So true
I mean he was going to go into free agency if they didn’t.
They could’ve got him back
Lions organization as a whole is rubbish. Fanbase is awesome
Huawei Videographer exactly
Know both his parents, never know how a story will end. His mom Stephanie and dad Darius. I’m sure they are proud
So many great fathers out here...great interview. May God continue his blessing to this family.
I was 16 years of age when I got pregnant dropped out of school when I was 17 when to Canary Art School got kicked out and respect to his mom God bless a strong woman anything you put your mind to you will accomplish it by the grace of God even though the struggle is real for me but I always keep my head up and pray to God hoping praying to God one day someone will discover me
Not only only being discovered by someone but discover yourself as well, and seek opportunities to better your life! God Bless you.
No matter that his mother was only 13 years old when she had him, she did a wonderful job and she supported him when he became a father but he was responsible for his care after school and that's why he is a successful athlete as well as a father, son, and father definitely admirable!
A 13 year old CANNOT raise a child! It was his grandmother that raised him, even though the video doesn't bring her up much
what a great story. "gotta work what ya got"
i always appreciate a baller, now i am a big fan of yours. go pack go
