Detroit Lions Reinstate C.J. Moore After Gambling Suspension

The team welcomes back the safety on a one-year contract, following a year-long suspension due to NFL gambling violations.

C.J. Moore, previously suspended for betting on NFL games, rejoins the Lions, bolstering their secondary.
The Lions had released Moore in April 2023 but have now signed him again after his reinstatement by the NFL.
Detroit's decision comes amidst a broader scrutiny of gambling within the NFL, with multiple players suspended last year.
Moore's return is part of the Lions' strategy to enhance depth in their safety positions, filling gaps left by offseason changes.
The signing reflects a second chance for Moore, who had been a significant special teams player for the Lions from 2019 to 2022.
