Kyle Queiro

In October 2019, Queiro was selected by the Seattle Dragons during the open phase (phase 5) of the 2020 XFL Draft. He was placed on injured reserve on March 9, 2020.

Queiro was graded the top linebacker of the 2020 XFL season by Pro Football Focus.

Queiro was signed by the Dallas Cowboys as an undrafted free agent after the 2018 NFL Draft on April 29. He dropped in the draft because his 40-yard dash time was considered slow compared to other defensive backs, so he was also tried at outside linebacker during training camp. He was waived on September 1 and signed to the practice squad the next day. He signed a reserve/future contract with the Cowboys on January 14, 2019. He was released on August 31, 2019.

As a senior, he started 13 games at strong safety, posting 60 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 5 interceptions (led the team) and 9 pass breakups (led the team). He had 9 tackles against Duke University. He made 6 tackles, 2 interceptions and 3 pass breakups against the University of Nebraska. He had a critical interception against the University of Kentucky, in the fourth quarter of the 2017 Music City Bowl, to help the team win 24-23.

As a junior, he started 10 games at strong safety, registering 53 tackles (32 solo), 3.5 tackles for loss, 2 interceptions and 6 pass breakups (tied for sixth on the team). He had a highlight one-handed interception against Indiana University. He made 8 tackles against Ohio State University. He had 9 tackles and 2.5 tackles for loss against the University of Minnesota. He helped secure a 31-24 win against the University of Pittsburgh in the 2016 Pinstripe Bowl, after intercepting a pass with less than 2 minutes left in the game.
