Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh has been suspended for this week's Wild Card Round matchup against the Dallas Cowboys after stepping on Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers in Sunday's 30-20 loss.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network passed along the information, relayed from a league spokesperson:
"You did not respond in the manner of someone who had lost his balance and accidentally contacted another player who was lying on the ground," NFL vice president of football operations Merton Hanks said in a letter, per Marc Sessler of NFL.com. "This illegal contact, specifically the second step and push off with your left foot, clearly could have been avoided."
