Sutton made 15 tackles (seven solo) and three passes defensed across nine regular-season appearances (two starts) with the Steelers in 2024.

EDGE Analysis

Sutton opened the 2024 campaign serving an eight-game suspension, relating to an incident last March in which he was charged with one misdemeanor count of domestic battery. Once eligible to retake the field, Sutton mostly contributed in a depth role for Pittsburgh, though down the stretch he took over a key role at slot cornerback. The 29-year-old will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Sutton was reinstated from his eight-game suspension Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sutton was served with an eight-game suspension due to a March incident in which he was charged with one misdemeanour count of domestic battery. The Steelers were granted a roster exemption for Sutton through Nov. 4, so the 2017 third-round pick is unlikely to be added to the 53-man roster until after that date. Sutton will give Pittsburgh additional depth in the secondary behind Joey Porter, Donte Jackson and Beanie Bishop.

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.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Sutton is signing with the Steelers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

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 regular-season games, but he was frequently picked on by quarterbacks and later released in March amid 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.

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.

EDGE Analysis

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.

The Lions released Sutton on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Sutton recorded 65 tackles, six passes defended, one interception and one forced fumble over 17 games in 2023.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Sutton had 10 solo tackles in Saturday's 20-19 loss to the Cowboys.

EDGE Analysis

Sutton's tackle total qualified as the 2017 third-round pick's single-game career high and also pushed his season total to a career-best 56. Sutton played every single defensive snap Saturday, the 11th time he has done so this year.

Sutton (toe) is active for Saturday night's game against the Cowboys.

EDGE Analysis

Sutton missed practice Thursday but got in a limited session Friday and was officially listed as questionable versus Dallas. He's cleared to play and will try to limit CeeDee Lamb and Brandin Cooks. Sutton has started all 15 games this season but has yet to intercept a pass and has just four pass breakups.

Sutton logged three tackles and one pass breakup during Saturday's win over the Broncos.

EDGE Analysis

Sutton logged all but one snap on defense and allowed just one catch on two targets for eight yards, per Pro Football Focus. However, the rest of the Lions' secondary was unable to stop either Courtland Sutton or Jerry Jeudy from topping 70 receiving yards. The Tennessee product may have a tougher time in Week 16 against Justin Jefferson and the Vikings.
