Slay, a six-time Pro Bowl selection, suffered a knee injury while Goedert and Mailata suffered hamstring injuries.
Slay, 33, injured his knee on the Eagles' first defensive drive of the second half. The 12-year veteran went to the medical tent before being assisted to the locker room.
In his fifth season with Philadelphia, Slay entered the game with 19 tackles this season and has 28 career interceptions (including three for touchdowns), 149 pass breakups and 589 tackles in 167 games (157 starts) with the Detroit Lions (2013-19) and Eagles.
Goedert, 29, saw one target before exiting on the first series of the game. He went to the medical tent before heading to the locker room and was ruled questionable before being ruled out.
A second-round pick of the Eagles in the 2018 draft, Goedert entered Sunday with 24 catches for 301 yards this season. In 88 games (71 starts), the seven-year veteran has 331 catches for 3,890 yards and 22 touchdowns.
Mailata, 27, was carted to the locker room in the fourth quarter after injuring his hamstring and immediately was ruled out.
A five-year veteran, Mailata has started 62 of his 67 career games after the Eagles selected him in the seventh round of the 2018 draft.
