Four Detroit Lions, including Jameson Williams, suspended for violating NFL gambling rules

The big news in the NFL today, despite the fact that we’re less than a week away from the 2023 NFL Draft, concerns one of the Minnesota Vikings’ division rivals.

The league has announced that four members of the Detroit Lions have been suspended for violating the NFL rules against gambling.

Wide receiver Quintez Cephus and safety C.J. Moore were each suspended for a year for betting on NFL games, while wide receivers Stanley Berryhill and (most notably) Jameson Williams have been suspended for six games. The distinction comes from the fact that Cephus and Moore both bet on NFL games, which is a huge no-no and what got former Atlanta Falcons/current Jacksonville Jaguars receiver Calvin Ridley a year’s suspension.
