NFL Suspends Free Agent Isaiah Buggs for First 10 Weeks of 2025 Season

The league cited a Personal Conduct Policy violation after a trespass plea, with earlier animal-cruelty counts dismissed.

Overview

  • Buggs is not on an NFL roster, so the suspension will toll and apply if he signs during the 2025 season.
  • He played four games in the UFL this spring with the San Antonio Brahmas as he sought a return to the NFL.
  • Court records show he pleaded guilty in March to a reduced charge of criminal trespass and received two years of supervised probation.
  • The Tuscaloosa County District Attorney moved in April to dismiss his prior misdemeanor animal-cruelty convictions after new evidence on care arrangements for the dogs.
  • Kansas City released him in June 2024 following his arrests; the former sixth-round pick previously played for the Steelers and Lions and earned a Super Bowl ring with the Chiefs.
