UNLV starting quarterback Matthew Sluka announced late Tuesday night on social media he will not play in any more games this season.
Sluka, a senior, said he will instead use his redshirt year. He spent the first four seasons of his college career at Holy Cross.
“I committed to UNLV based on certain representations that were made to me, which were not upheld after I enrolled,” Sluka posted on X, formerly Twitter. “Despite discussions, it became clear that these commitments would not be fulfilled in the future. I wish my teammates the best of luck this season and hope for the continued success of the program.”

Sluka completed 21 of 48 passes for 318 yards and six touchdowns with one interception in three games this season. The dual threat also had 39 carries for 253 yards and a score for the Rebels (3-0), who host Fresno State (3-1, 1-0) in their Mountain West Conference opener on Saturday.
Either Hajj-Malik Williams or Cameron Friel will start at quarterback for UNLV in that game.
