Steelers Walked Into The Cam Sutton Suspension Situation Completely Blind: ‘There Has Been No Decision’

The Pittsburgh Steelers shocked a lot of fans when they brought back Cam Sutton during the 2024 offseason. The organization chose not to re-sign him going into the 2023 season, and he wound up struggling at outside corner for the Detroit Lions. He got himself into legal trouble while with Detroit, which led to his release. Pittsburgh had a hole at slot corner, and they decided it was a good idea to bring Sutton back in on a contract worth the veteran minimum for the 2024 season.

The NFL is still investigating Sutton’s off-the-field issues, and it’s likely he finds himself being suspended for multiple games to begin the 2024 season. The length of the suspension is unclear, but if it is a substantial one, Pittsburgh would probably need to add another corner to the roster. Insider Mark Kaboly recently reported that it is likely Pittsburgh has some idea of what Sutton’s suspension will be, since Art Rooney II has been around a while and presumably has connections throughout the league office.

Bob Labriola completely contradicted that point, and said there is no way for the Steelers to know any details about the league’s investigation. He touched on this during his Asked and Answered segment on the team’s website.
