He bounced from the Minnesota Vikings to the Arizona Cardinals to the Detroit Lions to the Chicago Bears to the Las Vegas Raiders and then back to the Vikings before he found himself with the USFL’s Breakers in the spring.
Lawrence will likely be the starting quarterback for the foreseeable future. Sloter will be looking to bounce C.J. Beathard as the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart. The team also has Jake Luton.
