Suspended Lions’ Suh Eligible to Return to Practice Dec. 12
The NFL has denied the appeal of Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh over his two-game suspension for stomping on an opponent, according to a league source.
“Art Shell, jointly appointed by the league and the NFL Players Association to hear the case under the new Collective Bargaining Agreement, has notified Suh about the decision,” The league said in a statement released Friday. “Suh is suspended for the Lions’ next two games and will be reinstated to the active roster on Dec. 12.”
Suh will miss the Lions’ home game in New Orleans on Sunday and a home game against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 14.
“We respect the disciplinary process,” said Lions president Tom Lewand in a statement. “Obviously, today’s ruling does not impact our preparations for this week’s game. We remain exclusively focused on the New Orleans Saints.”
Shell is one of two on-field appeals officers — Ted Cottrell is the other — appointed and compensated by the NFL and NFLPA to decide the appeals of on-field player discipline.
Suh was penalized and ejected from a Thanksgiving Day loss to Green Bay for stomping on the arm of Green Bay Packers guard Evan Dietrich-Smith. The league handed down the suspension on Tuesday and Suh immediately appealed, which was heard on a conference call Thursday.
