The Arizona Cardinals have added former Desert Mountain High School quarterback Kedon Slovis to the practice squad as their third-stringer behind Kyler Murray and Jacoby Brissett.
He fills the void left by Clayton Tune, who was waived at the 53-man roster cut deadline and joined the Green Bay Packers on Wednesday.
Slovis played for the practice squads of the Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans in the past year after he went undrafted in 2024 out of BYU. He was waived by Houston on Tuesday.
This preseason with the Texans, Slovis completed 27 of 43 passes (62.8%) for 233 yards, a touchdown and an interception.
His college career began on a high at USC, when then-starter JT Daniels went down with a season-ending injury. Slovis appeared in 12 games that year and set an NCAA freshman record completion percentage of 71.8%, passing for 3,502 yards and 30 touchdowns to nine interceptions in an Air Raid style offense.
The numbers fell off as he struggled with injuries the next two years, playing a combined 13 games for the Trojans. Slovis spent a year at Pittsburgh in 2022 and then closed his college career at BYU in 2023, throwing for 1,716 yards with 12 touchdowns and six interceptions over eight starts.
Cardinals find a Clayton Tune replacement in Kedon Slovis
Tune, 26, was a fifth-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft and went on to be Arizona’s third-string quarterback that year before getting elevated to the backup role last season behind Kyler Murray.
Tune made his one lone start as a rookie and has 23 total pass attempts to his name.
His most relevant role was in quarterback sneak packages, Arizona’s version of “The Tush Push” in Philly, which ultimately was not nearly as successful.
