When Suh, in his second NFL season, stomped on the arm of offensive linemen Evan Dietrich-Smith early in the third quarter on Thanksgiving Day against the Green Bay Packers in 2011, he was ejected. He went to the locker room, dressed and bolted for home while the game ensued. Late in the game upon learning he had left, the Lions called him and told him to immediately return. They told him he would have to discuss things with them and face reporters.
Suh returned. He met with Lions leaders. He stood at the podium and talked to reporters.
But Suh and his team of advisers believed the Lions did not help him enough to prepare for that. Suh and his team were angry that the Lions forced him to immediately do it. Suh and his group learned to live with it -- but never forgot it.
