Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay underwent arthroscopic knee surgery this week and will not play in the team's upcoming game, coach Nick Sirianni announced Saturday.

Slay will not be available for the Eagles' (10-3) matchup on Monday night against the host Seattle Seahawks (6-7) but is expected to return by the end of the regular season, according to multiple reports.

Slay, 32, has been dealing with a knee injury throughout the season, forcing him to miss the Eagles' 20-14 loss to the New York Jets in Week 6. He reportedly practiced only once in the past two weeks.

Slay has 57 tackles and two interceptions in 12 starts this year. The five-time Pro Bowl selection has 28 interceptions in 163 games (153 starts) with Detroit (2013-19) and Philadelphia.
