Detroit Lions’ Ndamukong Suh says offensive lineman are like ‘gnats’
By Bryan Rose
Detroit Lions defensive lineman Ndamukong Suh has been previously voted as the dirtiest player in the NFL by his peers, an image that likely only enhanced when Suh went low on Minnesota Vikings center John Sullivan in Week One.
It was a hit that docked Suh’s wallet $100,000 dollars but that didn’t stop him from dishing out punishment against the Arizona Cardinals in Week Two, who claimed Suh again went for the knees of an offensive lineman, this time with Paul Fanaika. It resulted in an unhappy Fanika going at Suh’s leg late in the fourth quarter, something Ndamukong clearly wasn’t happy with:
"“Happens all the time,” Suh said. “It’s not going to stop. I look forward to it, look forward to keep making plays down the field. That’s my job and to me it’s just gnats that are in the air that keep going after you and you swat at them and sometimes you hit them, sometimes you don’t, sometimes they just run away, sometimes they come back again. But ultimately, I’m that bee going to find that honey hole, that’s what I go and do.”"
