Sloter was known as a preseason legend around the Vikings fanbase and a player who many thought deserved a chance with the team. In the preseason finale of 2017, Sloter completed 15-23 passes for 222 yards and a touchdown against the Arizona Cardinals while with the Denver Broncos.
Over his two preseason with the Vikings, he never had a completion percentage less that 66% while throwing eight touchdowns and one interception.
He was waived after the 2019 preseason and had a brief stay with the team in 2021. It was a fun stay with the team and things ended the way they probably should have.
