ISAIAH BUGGS NEWS

Suspension lifted The NFL reinstated Buggs on Tuesday after he served a 10-game suspension, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

Impact The league handed Buggs a 10-game suspension in late August, which stemmed from his arrest in June of 2024 on second-degree charges of domestic violence and burglary. The 2019 sixth-rounder has served his suspension, and he is now eligible to sign with a team. Buggs last saw regular-season action in 2023 with the Lions, when he tallied 12 tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, one pass defense and one fumble recovery across 10 games.

Handed 10-game suspension The NFL has suspended Buggs, who is currently a free agent, for 10 games, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Buggs' suspension stems from an arrest last June on second-degree charges of domestic violence and burglary. He eventually pleaded guilty to a criminal trespass charge this past March, and the league has suspended him for violating the NFL Personal Conduct Policy. Buggs was released by Kansas City shortly after his arrest and hasn't signed with another club since.

Let go by Detroit The Lions waived Buggs on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Head coach Dan Campbell told reporters Tuesday that Alim McNeill (knee) could come off injured reserve and return to the field this weekend, so the Lions likely parted ways with Buggs to open up a roster spot. The fifth-year pro had spent the last two seasons in Detroit, appearing in 27 games and recording 58 total tackles, including two tackles for loss and 2.0 sacks, while also deflecting three passes.

Returns to practice Buggs (illness) was listed as a full participant for Monday's walkthrough on the Lions' injury report.

Impact Buggs should be clear for the team's Thanksgiving Day game against the Packers after missing their win over the Bears on Sunday. Considering his participation level was just an estimate, his status for Tuesday's practice should better verify those expectations.

Missing Week 11 Buggs (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The 27-year-old nose tackle did not practice all week, as he continues to deal with an illness, so it's no surprise that he'll be inactive for Sunday's contest. With Buggs missing time, Levi Onwuzurike and Brodric Martin should see increased snaps as rotational defensive lineman this weekend.
