Lions: Suh Wins Appeal, Fined 70K Instead Of Suspension

DETROIT (97.1 THE TICKET) - It appears that the Detroit Lions will have Ndamukong Suh on the roster for Sunday's playoff game against Dallas.

The Detroit Lions say he'll face a $70,000 fine for the incident, instead of the suspension.

According to the Lions the one-game suspension levied on Suh by the NFL has been overturned by appeals officer Ted Cottrell and Suh can now rejoin his teammates in Allen Park and compete in Sunday's playoff game in Dallas.

Cottrell reversed the one-game suspension after an expedited appeals process Tuesday afternoon in New York.
