JACKSONVILLE (SportsTicker) - Quarterback Kyle Sloter is in the Jaguars training camp
after being added to the roster on July 24.
He played in nine games with the New Orleans Breakers in the
USFL in 2022 and completed 168 of 291 passes for 1,798 yards and nine TDs. The
Jaguars released QB EJ Perry with a non-football injury designation.
“I had watched him a little bit in the USFL this year in some
of the spots he’s been in. He’s a young guy that, with EJ, again with an injury
this summer, we had to decide because he needed another arm in here to keep
throwing and all of that,” said head coach Doug Pederson on Monday. “This is a great
opportunity for him to really embrace this chance, embrace this opportunity,
get some time in maybe these first couple of games, and get some meaningful
reps and tape out there not only for us but also for other teams.”
Sloter, 6-5, 218, most recently spent time in the NFL with
the Vikings during the 2021 season.
A Johns Creek, Ga. native, Sloter attended Northern Colorado
from 2015-16 and in 2016, he completed 198 of 319 passes for a school-record 29
TDs.
Jaguars training camp resumes Wednesday.
