The Detroit Lions announced on Saturday that defensive tackle CJ Mosley has been suspended for two weeks for conduct detrimental to the team. As a result, he has been sent home from London and will not be in attendance for Detroit’s game against the Atlanta Falcons at Wembley Stadium on Sunday.
The Lions would not say which team rule Mosley violated.
Mosley, a 31-year-old veteran, has 2.5 sacks this season and has appeared in every game. He is a big part of a Lions defensive line that has been arguably the most dominant defensive unit in the league. Detroit’s front seven will be a bit thinner in his absence, though the team shouldn’t need Mosley against the Falcons.
