Steelers reportedly set to sign CB Cameron Sutton to a one-year deal
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – The Steelers are reportedly set to bring back cornerback Cameron Sutton.
According to a report from Tom Pelissero, Sutton’s agency has said he will be signing with the Steelers.
Sutton spent six years with the Steelers between 2017 and 2022 and started 39 games. In that time he recorded eight interceptions, five forced fumbles, and two sacks. He also had 143 solo tackles.
Last season, Sutton was with the Detroit Lions and started all 17 games with one interception, one forced fumble, and 50 solo tackles.
Meanwhile, the Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac says that Sutton is meeting with the team today and will most likely sign a one-year, veteran minimum deal.
This offseason, an arrest warrant was issued for Sutton in Hillsborough County, Florida on March 20 on charges of domestic violence. Sutton ultimately turned himself into police on March 31 and was booked on one misdemeanor count of domestic battery and was released.
According to the Detroit Free Press, Sutton was released on his own recognizance.
While it’s not known yet, Sutton still could be subjected to discipline from the NFL.
Steelers also bolster defensive depth with Grayland Arnold
The Steelers also officially announced the signing of defensive back Grayland Arnold to a one-year contract.
Arnold was originally an undrafted free agent signing by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020 and played in six games that season, starting one of them.
In the past three seasons, he’s been with the Houston Texans.
In 2023, Arnold had 15 tackles, 11 solo tackles, and a forced fumble.

Pittsburgh horror film history honored with new award
Pittsburgh voted best Fourth of July celebration in America
In 2026, Pittsburgh gets the bragging rights for the nation’s Best Fourth of July Celebration, as determined by voters in USA Today 10BEST Readers’ Choice Awards.
Pittsburgh has long been known for its connections to horror films starting with George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead in 1968.
Now, in honor of that designation and the legacy of Romero, who died in 2016, the Pittsburgh Film Festival has announced it is introducing a new award this year.
The inaugural Romero Awardfor Best Horror Feature will be presented at the 45th annual Three Rivers Film Festival, scheduled to run from Nov. 4-15, according to the group’s website. Presented with support from the George A. Romero Foundation, the award will be selected by a panel of industry judges.
Named in honor of Romero, the award celebrates bold, visionary work in the horror genre. As the birthplace of Night of the Living Dead, Pittsburgh remains a vital home for horror storytelling, making the Romero Award a natural addition to the festival’s juried honors, the group said.
“The GARF is devoted to preserving Romero’s legacy and continues to support creatives and independent filmmaking in genres and horror spaces,” Suzanne Romero, George’s widow and founder and president of the George A. Romero Foundation, said recently. She died June 24 at her home in Toronto after a long illness.
Film Pittsburgh’s executive director, Shanna Carrick, added, “We are proud to partner with the GARF to introduce an international competition for best independent horror film. Pittsburgh has a deep love of horror films and we believe that our audiences will be thrilled to experience new voices in the genre.”
The festival is currently accepting submissions, with the full lineup to be announced in October.
The festival will also continue to celebrate its horror offerings with its beloved Chiller Theater, named in honor of the late Pittsburgh horror show host Chilly Billy Cardille. The spooky showcase features the best new independent horror shorts from around the globe and Allegheny County.

Later in the inning, former Red Tyler Callihan hit his third home run of the year, giving Pittsburgh a 4-0 lead.
