Suspended eight games

Sutton has been suspended the first eight games of the 2024 regular season for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. Sutton's suspension relates to a March incident in which he was charged with one misdemeanor count of domestic battery. The veteran cornerback, who previously played for the Steelers from 2017 through 2022 before a one-year stint with Detroit last season, will be eligible for reinstatement after Pittsburgh's game against the Giants in Week 8. Once reinstated, he could mix in as a rotational player in the Steelers secondary.
Rejoining Pittsburgh
![Team logo](https://heavy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/pittsburgh-steelers-logo.png?w=150)
Sutton is signing with the Steelers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. He previously spent six years with the Steelers after they drafted him in the third round in 2017. Sutton signed a three-year contract with the Lions last offseason and started all 17 games, but he was frequently picked on by quarterbacks and later released in March amidst reports of a warrant being out for his arrest. Sutton eventually turned himself in to Florida police and was charged with a misdemeanor count of domestic battery.
Appears in court

Sutton appeared in court Monday after turning himself in to the Hillsborough (Fla.) County Sheriff's Office late Sunday, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports. Per the report, Sutton was charged with one misdemeanor count of domestic battery stemming from an incident last month that led to an arrest warrant. Since then, the Lions released the cornerback, who appeared in 17 regular-season games with Detroit in 2023 and recorded 65 tackles and an interception.
Released by Detroit

The Lions released Sutton on Thursday. Jonathan Jones of CBSSports.com reports that Sutton is wanted by Florida police for his alleged involvement in a domestic violence case. There's a warrant out for his arrest, with authorities reportedly unable to locate him so far.
Underwhelming in Detroit
![Team logo](https://heavy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/pittsburgh-steelers-logo.png?w=150)
Sutton recorded 65 tackles, six passes defended, one interception and one forced fumble over 17 games in 2023. Detroit made a decent gamble last offseason by giving Sutton a contract that made him among the top-20 most expensive cornerbacks in the league. While Sutton continued to be reliable from a health standpoint, he played a large role within a secondary that allowed the sixth-most passing touchdowns (28), the sixth-most passing yards per game (247.4), and the most passing plays of 20-plus yards (69). Under contract for at least one more season before the Lions could realistically part ways with him, Sutton should get every chance to re-establish himself in 2024, but it wouldn't be a surprise if Detroit tries to upgrade at outside cornerback during the offseason.
