Sutton recorded 65 tackles, six passes defended including one interception and one forced fumble over 17 regular-season games in 2023.
Detroit made Sutton one of the top-20 most highly paid cornerbacks in the league last season, but didn't exactly get a great return on their investment. While he continued to be reliable from a health standpoint, he played a large role in 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) in 2023. 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 next season, but it wouldn't be a surprise if Detroit tries to upgrade at outside cornerback during the offseason.
