Sutton is in the building in Pittsburgh this morning. He was released by the Lions earlier this offseason after an arrest warrant was issued for domestic battery.
In 2023, Sutton signed a three-year deal with the Detroit Lions. After starting in every game for the Lions last season, Detroit released Sutton after a warrant was issued for his arrest in Florida this March for domestic battery.
Police were unable to locate Sutton for three weeks after the arrest warrant was initially issued, though Sutton eventually turned himself in to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office in Florida.
"After weeks of evading law enforcement, this man has finally made the right choice to turn himself in," Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister said in a statement at the time. "Domestic violence has no place in our community, and no one is above the law here in Hillsborough County."
Sutton was initially charged with a felony, but was ultimately charged with misdemeanor battery.
