Latest gambling suspensions are a cautionary tale for all teams

According to NFL Network reporter Tom Pelissero, the Indianapolis Colts have cut cornerback Isaiah Rodgers and defensive end Rashod Berry after both players were suspended indefinitely for violating the league’s gambling ban, including betting on NFL games. Both players are now subject to waivers and suspended at least through the end of the 2023 season.

In the last two years, the following players have been suspended for at least one season for betting on NFL games:

– WR Calvin Ridley

– CB Isaiah Rodgers

– LB Rashod Berry

– DT Demetrius Taylor

– S C.J. Moore

– WR Quintez Cephus

– DE Shaka Toney

Thankfully, the Pittsburgh Steelers were not involved in any of this, but anytime something like this happens, it creates a heightened awareness among all teams. You can bet that the Steelers and the rest of the league will be focusing on educating players about the league’s rules on gambling.
