Suh Says Agent Jimmy Sexton Will Decide Where He Goes In Free Agency

ALLEN PARK (CBS DETROIT) - Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh continues to dodge questions about his future.

Asked Wednesday whether Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings will be the last he plays at Ford Field, Suh said he has no clue and that his agent Jimmy Sexton will be the one deciding where Suh, a perennial All-Pro, goes in free agency.

"Go speak to Jimmy about that if you really want an answer to that question," Suh said.

"It'll be Jimmy's decision, so we'll go with that," Suh added. "You can call Jimmy if you want to continue."

Fellow defensive tackle Andre Fluellen said players do not ask Suh what he plans to do after this season.

"That's kind of his personal business," Fluellen said. "We're just kind of taking care of football."

Fluellen said the lack of contract conversation is not unusual.

"Within the unit, we're just so focused on playing the next game and things like that," Fluellen said. "That's just kind of a byproduct, and that's their own personal business."

Certainly, however, Fluellen would be happy if Suh stayed.

"Anybody that's that caliber of a player, you want him on your team," Fluellen said. "The success that we have, he has a vital part of that, so you want a guy like that on your team."
