Unsettling Report on Former Lions CB Surfaces Amid Allegation of Assault.
The Detroit Lions took swift action following news from Florida police that Cameron Sutton was wanted on a domestic violence warrant, severing ties with the cornerback on March 21.
As authorities continue their search for Sutton in connection with an accusation of strangling a woman, an unsettling report has resurfaced from his time playing college football at the University of Tennessee. During that period, Sutton experienced concussion symptoms and admitted to frequently blacking out while on the field, a revelation that has garnered renewed attention from fans following the recent allegations against him.
The headline “Cameron Sutton Revealed in College: ‘I Just Black Out’” reflects the circumstances during Sutton’s college football days at Tennessee. In November 2014, Sutton had to briefly exit a game against Missouri due to concussion symptoms. He later disclosed that he regularly experienced blackouts while playing, prompting concerns about a potentially serious condition.
Sutton shared with 247Sports in 2014, as reported by AL.com, “From time to time, it just happens throughout the course of the day. I might black out, but I just keep walking and nothing ever happens. It’s the first time it’s ever happened in a game. But, you know, I can’t let that stop me from going back out there and finishing the rest of the game.”
