On Friday, the NFL announced the suspensions of multiple players for violations of the league's gambling rules. This list included four players from the Detroit Lions, including Jameson Williams, C.J. Moore, Quintez Cephus, and Stanley Berryhill.
Moore and Cephus were found to have bet on NFL games, were suspended indefinitely by the NFL, and immediately released by the Lions. Williams and Berryhill bet on non-NFL games, but on NFL property, and were suspended for six games by the league.
Details surrounding how these events may have transpired are still being uncovered, and we have addressed several topics surrounding these incidents in recent podcasts and in written form, but one common question we have yet to dissect is how this impacts the Lions' salary cap.
