NEW YORK -- The NFL has been suspended Detroit defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh for two games for stomping an opponent in a Thanksgiving Day game.

More From ESPN.com

Ndamukong Suh's stomp was brutal and unsportsmanlike, but Jeff MacGregor wonders why we expected anything else. Story



Suh stomped on the arm of Green Bay guard Evan Dietrich-Smith in the third quarter of the Lions' 27-15 loss and was ejected for kicking.

On the same play, Suh shoved Dietrich-Smith's helmet toward the turf while Dietrich-Smith was on the ground.

Suh called commissioner Roger Goodell on Sunday night to apologize for his behavior during Detroit's loss to Green Bay, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

This month, the 2010 Defensive Rookie of the Year requested a meeting with Goodell to discuss his play after he drew several penalties. Suh said he had a better understanding of the rules after that meeting.

The Lions are expected to issue the maximum $25,000 fine allowable under the new CBA for a player being ejected from a game. Team president Tom Lewand has been in communication with league officials. The Lions also have to pay a $50,000 fine because team members will have been fined more than $100,000 this season.

In 2006, the league suspended Titans DT Albert Haynesworth for five games for swiping his cleats across the head of helmetless Dallas center Andre Gurode.

Information from The Associated Press contributed to this report.

He might, but it won't do any good.

Anyone else find it funny that this thread uses the word banned???

Well if he appeals, he will be able to play against New Orleans more than likely.
I doubt he does appeal though.

I dunno they said that if he appeals they will do the hearing this week for some reason, instead of the next week like they usually do.

i think banned means he cant be at the games/practice and suspended means he can still show up. something like that, i remember hearing it about an nba player a few years back.


he should have gotten three. but im ok with two. he does need to tone his attitude down for sure.

#Lions DT Ndamukong Suh will appeal his 2-game suspension upon the encouragement of the #NFLPA and commissioner Roger Goodell to do so.

Suh is appealing his suspension but will not practice or go to team facility until it's decided. Commish and NFLPA suggested he appea

So even if he appeals, he can't play this weekend anyway or that's what it looks like anyways if he can't practice or go to team facility.

Got to at least try and appeal, nothing good will come out on his side though IMO.
