Sutton was reinstated from his eight-game suspension Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. 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. 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 agreed to a contract with the Steelers on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. 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.

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.
