I saw a bug in my kitchen and curious as to what it is. Looks different than any I’ve seen before . . . Help.

It is a dark brown color, almost black with a grey spot behind the head. It is very small and has antenna. I thought it was a cockroach but when I looked at pictures online, I didn’t see any that looked like this. It also looks different than any I have seen before. I know it probably came in from outside because it is cold and I don’t have good seal around the door in my kitchen. Does anyone know what this could be.
Definately not a termite or a spider, but good suggestion.
Nope, not a silverfish. I had thought it might have been a cockroach that I hadn’t seen before, but I checked an online site with pictures of cockroaches found in the US and didn’t see anything that looked like what I saw. Still its possible it could be a cockroach, but I couldn’t confirm that was it. Thought someone might know of something else it may be. Maybe something that looks similar to a cockroach with the grey spot on it. I know it wasn’t a beetle either.
