Raiders Releasing QB Kyle Sloter From Practice Squad

The Las Vegas Raiders are releasing QB Kyle Sloter from their practice squad on Tuesday, according to Tom Pelissero. 

This is the first move from the Raiders since Jon Gruden resigned as their head coach Monday night. 

Sloter, 27, wound up signing a three-year, $1.66 million contract with the Broncos as an undrafted free agent out of Northern Colorado back in 2017. He was set to make base salaries of $465,000 and $555,000 over the first two years of the contract when the Broncos cut him loose.

From there, Sloter had brief stints with the Vikings, Cardinals and Lions before the Bears signed him to their practice squad in November of last year. The Raiders signed him to a futures deal back in January but cut him loose in April. He had come back for a brief stint on the taxi squad. 

During his college career at Southern Mississippi and Northern Colorado, Sloter appeared in 34 games and completed 198 passes on 320 attempts (61.9 percent) for 2,656 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions.
