Ndamukong Suh says there’s nothing about his hits that would cause concussions

Detroit Lions DT Ndamukong Suh says that to his knowledge he has “never hurt anyone through playing the game of football.”

Before I jump into this, let me just say that GQ does some fantastic work when it comes to sports and sports writing. To mark the upcoming NFL season the magazine’s September issue features nice photo spreads of both Cam Newton and Victor Cruz as well as an in depth article on Detroit Lions DT Ndamukong Suh. The Suh article is absolutely worth reading because it contains a lot of gems on the tough player who many have pegged as the dirtiest player in the league.

Through this article we find out that:

  • During the offseason Suh still lives with his parents in his old bedroom — it’s a cultural thing.
  • His sistes is his manager and gate keeper.
  • Suh started off playing soccer (as did his sister).
  • He really doesn’t like to talk a lot but when he does he’s thoughtful and he’s a good pitchman for the products he endorses.
  • His great-grandfather was 7’3 but his father is 5’8
