It was recently announced that the NFL was suspending CB Cameron Sutton for the first eight games on the 2024 season after violating the league Personal Conduct Policy. Sutton was charged with domestic battery early in the offseason, leading to his arrest. He later had the charges dropped, but still faced potential punishment from the league for the incident.
Sutton was expected to step in as Pittsburgh’s starting slot cornerback before the suspension, which will keep him off the field until Oct. 29 following the team’s Week 8 game against the New York Giants. With Sutton out of the lineup, Pittsburgh has been relying on Anthony Averett, Josiah Scott, Grayland Arnold and UDFA Beanie Bishop to take snaps in the slot in their sub-package defense.
