Suh Says Feet Too ‘Numb’ to Realize He Stepped on Rodgers; Suspension Lifted

The NFL on Monday overturned its one-game suspension imposed on Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh for stepping on Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers during Sunday’s game.

Suh who has a history of cheap shots and dirty plays was seen on camera stomping on Aaron Rogers previously injured leg.

The former Nebraska All-American had appealed the suspension saying that his feet were numb from cold and that he couldn’t tell the difference between Aaron Rodgers’ feet and the ground. Breitbart News reported on Tuesday that Suh’s appeal would be heard by former NFL defensive coordinator Ted Cottrell.

LOL

The freeper left AND every NFL executive involved in player development. I don’t think the NFL execs factor our opinions into their decision making.

I do not like or hate the lions. I personally think that Suh is a cheap shot artist. However, from what I saw, it didn’t look like he intentionally stepped on Rogers. He wasn’t lokking at him and certainly did not stomp on his leg.

They should. They might stop promoting dog killers, rapists, wife beaters and homos as symbols of ‘good’ and something to admire and spend money on.

Unless you approve of all that, in which case, good luck with it.

He did NOT stomp. And did anyone see the pic of Staffords leg posted by his fiancee? Ripped and bleeding from being cleated...everyone does it every week but somehow Suh is the only one fined for it

The NFL is in the business to make money, and the money is in winning, like it or not.

It has absolutely nothing to do with what you or I approve of.

Like hell it is. You don’t make money by pissing off half your customer base with the crap they pull. And don’t tell me they havent lost cast betwin Vic, fagboy and the wifebeater. Their corp ad losses prove that alone. The NFL USED to be in business to make money. Today they are a propaganda arm of the left wing agenda. Nothing more.

Feet that numb couldn’t be played on or even walked on very effectively. And, if memory serves, he did continue to play that day.

Looks like Suh will have some time now to get the feeling back in his feet. I wish him all the best in his recovery...:)
