Packers Sign QB Kedon Slovis to the Practice Squad
Slovis gives Green Bay a third quarterback after the Cardinals cut him, and the practice squad now includes 13 players, the team said.
On Tuesday, general manager Brian Gutekunst announced that the Green Bay Packers are signing quarterback Kedon Slovis to the practice squad, following the team's finalization of their initial 53-man roster on Sunday.
Slovis, 25, joined Green Bay after the Arizona Cardinals released him during Sunday's roster cutdown, having recently competed against the Packers during a joint practice and preseason game at Lambeau Field.
An undrafted 2024 prospect, Slovis started 42 games and threw for nearly 12,000 yards across his collegiate career at USC, Pittsburgh, and BYU. He joins Jordan Love and Tyrod Taylor in the Packers' quarterback room.
The Packers utilized several practice squad openings to add depth following finalization of their initial 53-man roster, as general manager Gutekunst prioritized stacking the roster with contributors.
Slovis said, "It's good to be back," reflecting his enthusiasm for joining a storied organization as the team prepares for the regular season with depth at the signal-caller position.
