    NFL Suspends Ndamukong Suh

    Big loss for the Lions if the suspension is upheld. I'm not sure they were going to beat Dallas regardless but the loss of Suh makes it that much harder to accomplish.


    NFL Suspends Ndamukong Suh

    Chris Mortensen reports the latest on Ndamukong Suh, who has been suspended for the Lions' playoff game against the Cowboys for stepping on Aaron Rodgers' lower leg during Detroit's loss to the Packers.

    The Detroit Lions and Ndamukong Suh have been informed that the defensive tackle will be suspended for this weekend's wild-card playoff game against the Dallas Cowboys.

    Suh's punishment comes a day after he stepped on the leg of Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

    Suh "unnecessarily stepped on [the] opponent's unprotected leg as he lay on the ground unable to protect himself," according to a statement released by the NFL.

    Suh is appealing the suspension and his appeal will be heard by Ted Cottrell.

    If Suh's appeal is denied, it would mean Detroit would be without both of its first-round defensive tackle selections. Coach Jim Caldwell said Monday it would take "a miracle" for defensive tackle Nick Fairley to play against the Cowboys. Fairley has not played or practiced since injuring his knee against Atlanta in Week 8.

    If neither Suh nor Fairley is available, the Lions likely would start C.J. Mosley and Andre Fluellen or Jason Jones at the defensive tackle spots.

    This isn't the first time Suh has had issues with Green Bay. He was suspended for two games in 2011 after stomping on the arm of then-Packers center Evan Dietrich-Smith. Suh was also fined $100,000 last season for an illegal low block on Minnesota center John Sullivan.

    He has been fined for roughing up Cincinnati's Andy Dalton, Chicago's Jay Cutler, then-Houston quarterback Matt Schaub and then-Cleveland quarterbacks Jake Delhomme and Brandon Weeden.

    If Suh is not allowed to play in Sunday's game and the Lions lose, it could be the end of the defensive star's time in Detroit as he is set to become a free agent at season's end.

    Information from ESPN's Chris Mortensen and ESPN.com's Detroit Lions reporter Michael Rothstein contributed to this report.

    He only has himself to blame for this, and the Lions only have themselves to blame for relying on a guy with this history. Give the money to someone else, let another team take the risk with Suh.

      Meh , still love em. He's a beast and the NFL has always had guys like this. His fellow lineman was guilty of a cheap shot recently too no ? Individual is one thing but cheap culture is worrisome.

        Won't be shocked at all if he's in silver and black next season.

              NFL is fascinating. All this worry and feign concern about player safety and excess violence off field....but a suspension doesn't hold up when a player goes out of his way to injure another after the whistle.
              Aaron Rogers should be offended. If it was Manning or Brady the NFL would have outlawed cleats next year.

                  What about Stafford. Keep up your hatred for the Lions..

                    How do I hate the Lions ? Pretty sure I said I love Suh , was screaming about CJ before anyone noticed him and still think Staffords sneak was an all time play. Lions fans on the other hand.....

                      Cowboys fans renowned worst fans in the galaxy. I can't wait to see DeMarco Murray leave next year. It's gonna be great.
