After being on the practice squad for the Las Vegas Raiders in 2021, Kyle Sloter signed with the Minnesota Vikings.
He initially played for the Denver Broncos during the 2017 preseason before being claimed by the Vikings. Sloter served as the third-string quarterback for Minnesota from 2017-2018. Although he was active for six games in 2017, he did not actually play in any of those contests.
It seems that his time in NFL didn’t go as planned, and he is discontent with the situation.
By the looks of QB depth charts these days, I should have worked harder to be best friends with the starter instead of actually competing and playing well. Teams value average backup play so the starter isnt threatened. #bitter take of the day lol.

You’re telling me Carson Wentz who almost won an MVP in 2017 isn’t good enough to be a backup?? hmmmmm

He then gave a special shout out to Vikings and Broncos fans:
Broncos and Vikings fans are just different ??

Throughout his career, Sloter also had brief stints with the Arizona Cardinals (2019), Detroit Lions (2019), and Chicago Bears (2020).
Originally from Johns Creek, Georgia, Sloter began his football journey as a wide receiver at Southern Miss before transferring to Northern Colorado, where he made the switch to quarterback.
In his one collegiate season as a quarterback, Sloter completed 197-of-318 passes for 2,665 yards and 29 touchdowns.
He also rushed for three touchdowns during that time.
Coincidentally, during his time at Southern Miss, Sloter was a teammate of Vikings T Rashod Hill.
No chance he’s getting back to the NFL now.
