Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh is not suspended from Sunday’s playoff game after all.
Suh has won the appeal of his one-game suspension and will play on Sunday at Dallas.
Instead of getting suspended, Suh will be fined $70,000. That’s actually a more harsh financial penalty than a suspension would have been, as players on wild card teams are paid $22,000 for their first playoff game.

That thug should be banned for life.
Won’t make a difference. The Cowboys are firing on all cylinders lately and the Lions don’t have much left in the tank. Cowboys by two touchdowns.
So Fats from Baretta gave Suh a pass. Great work, Cottrell.
Hey! “Ndamukong “ is my middle name!
Then the NFL needs to stop running those phony “No More” PSA commercials, because apparently, they do condone thug behavior and violence.
Suh has a long history of cheap-shot, dirty play. In this case, he intentionally - yet again - deliberately tried to injure another player.
The NFL is a hypocritical joke. What? Did Al Sharpton threaten the Commissioner?
NFL?
NFW.
Not a Cowboys fan, but I hope they decimate the dirty Lions.
They should have made $250,000 so he never does that crap again...
I saw the play, his first step on Rogers was obviously a mistake, he was getting his balance, the second step back was obviously intentional...
Lions fan here. The thug should be banned. He is a bum.
As a Packer Owner I am appalled at this. What BS.
“Cottrell has a reputation for fairness in appeals hearings.”
He stepped on him TWICE!
NFL is a bunch of phonies \ all talk, no action. He has a history of cheap shots. If they were serious abt player safety (concussions?), they penalty would be more harsh.
If 0bama had a son...
Stafford will still blow it.
A $70,000 fine that I am certain the Lion’s organization will be more than happy to repay Suh through his next contract, which is up at the end of this year.
This is a joke. Suh gets away with it again. $70,000? Pffft... just tack that onto his contract in the fall. I am sure this is all pre-arranged.
Show me more of the “No More” propaganda. By the way, why are they showing it to me? Seems the NFL players are the ones beating their spouses, not the fans.

We need to start a meme that the players in those commercials are themselves wife-beaters.
I hope the ghost of Andre’ Waters breaks Suh’s knees. At least Waters was a dirty bird while delivering hits during the plays, not stomping on people as Suh has shown to enjoy doing after the plays, over, and over, and over..............
The fine should be made payable to: Green Bay Packers, ATTN: Arron Rodgers
