A NFL spokesman said Monday that Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh will not be suspended for a hit on Houston Texans quarterback Matt Schaub.

During the first quarter of the Texans’ 34-31 overtime win over the Lions, Suh appeared to kick Schaub’s groin as Suh was rolling to the ground. League spokesman Greg Aiello said on Twitter that Suh has been notified about not being suspended, but the play will be reviewed for a potential fine. Suh did not have a chance to explain his version of the Schaub hit as he left the locker room area without speaking to reporters.

The NFL handed Suh a two-game suspension after he stomped on Green Bay Packers guard Evan Dietrich-Smith’s arm in last season’s Thanksgiving game.

    This clown, Suh, is such a D.B.! Suspend his fat ass for a year, maybe the light will come on, but I doubt it! I more than agree with Schaub, dont want this bonehead neanderthal on my team, or anyones!!!

    Me again. Man, I am P.O.! Used to like Godell, but now he might as well as be sleeping with Selig!

    Well, Suh may not be a good player, but he sure is a good crook. First, he got away with kicking Schaub in the balls from the referees. Then, he got away with it from the league office. So, why not start a trend of kicking the QB in the balls whenever you get the chance. If the refs don't catch it and the league doesn't catch it, why not go for it.

    Someone should take out this A...hole with a block across the knees. Maybe a few weeks on crutches will change his attitude.

    It's plain to see that some stars in the league are clearly getting preferential treatment.  How Suh is allowed to get away with yet another incident is beyond me and most logical people...
