NEW YORK (WKOW) -- The NFL has suspended Detroit defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh for two games without pay for stomping on a Green Bay Packer during a Thanksgiving Day game.
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's suspension will cost him $164,000, or two game checks. He can appeal the NFL's suspension. He has three days to do so.
If Suh's suspension stands, he will miss games against the New Orleans Saints and the Minnesota Vikings.
This month, the 2010 Defensive Rookie of the Year requested a meeting with Commissioner Roger Goodell to discuss his play after he drew several penalties. Suh said he had a better understanding of the rules after that meeting.
