The NFL has suspended five players, including four on the Detroit Lions, for violating the league’s gambling policy in the league’s biggest crackdown since the widespread proliferation of legal sports betting across the U.S.
The unprecedented bans coming down at once from the NFL reflects the growing challenge the entire sports world faces as betting becomes increasingly prevalent.

Leagues such as the NFL face the thorny task of both preventing their own personnel from engaging in the practice while also embracing the new revenue streams it offers.
