The Detroit Lions released Cameron Sutton with a June 1st designation, spreading his cap penalty out over two seasons.

The former Senate staffer who allegedly filmed a sex tape in a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing room may face legal consequences. Legal expert Jonathan Turley suggests charges of trespassing and improper use of government property could be brought against the 24-year-old former legislative aide.

The staffer's alleged payments on Venmo labeled as "Sexual favors" and "Strip dancers" have also been uncovered. Capitol Police are aware of the situation, and the former aide is no longer employed by the Senate.
