NFL suspends five players for violating league's gambling rules

The NFL said it has suspended five players on Friday for violating the league's gambling policy.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Quintez Cephus and safety C.J. Moore and Washington Commanders defensive end Shaka Toney are now suspended indefinitely, while Lions wide receivers Stanley Berryhill and Jameson Williams have been suspended for six games. Their suspension will begin in the fall when the 2023-24 season begins. 

Cephus, Moore and Toney are suspended indefinitely for betting on NFL games in the 2022 season. However, they may petition for reinstatement at the conclusion of the 2023 season, league officials said.
