The Detroit Lions have released Cameron Sutton … just one day after it was revealed cops are looking to arrest him following an alleged domestic violence incident in Florida.
The NFL org announced the roster decision on Thursday … without providing any further comment.
As we previously reported, the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office began looking for Sutton earlier this month … after a woman alleged that back on March 7, he roughed her up during a violent encounter.
Police say despite attempts to call Sutton and locate him at his Pinellas County residence … they haven’t had any luck getting a hold of him — and they’re now seeking the public’s help to find him.
If and when he’s caught, the HCSO said in a statement he’s facing a charge of domestic battery by strangulation.
Sutton — a 29-year-old Univ. of Tennessee alum — was selected by the Steelers in the third round of the 2017 draft. Last March, he inked a three-year deal worth $33 million to play for Detroit.
In his lone season in the Motor City, he had 65 total tackles, one interception and one forced fumble.
