The NFL reinstated Buggs on Tuesday after he served a 10-game suspension, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. The league handed Buggs a 10-game suspension in late August, which stemmed from his arrest in June of 2024 on second-degree charges of domestic violence and burglary. The 2019 sixth-rounder has served his suspension, and he is now eligible to sign with a team. Buggs last saw regular-season action in 2023 with the Lions, when he tallied 12 tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, one pass defense and one fumble recovery across 10 games.

Isaiah Buggs: Breaking News
Handed 10-game suspension
The NFL has suspended Buggs, who is currently a free agent, for 10 games, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Buggs' suspension stems from an arrest last June on second-degree charges of domestic violence and burglary. He eventually pleaded guilty to a criminal trespass charge this past March, and the league has suspended him for violating the NFL Personal Conduct Policy. Buggs was released by Kansas City shortly after his arrest and hasn't signed with another club since.
