The NFL's officiating office planned to review Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh's post-throw hit on Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden this past Sunday, Josh Katzenstein of the Detroit News reports. In an NFL Media video from the series, "Behind Closed Doors: How a Hit Becomes a Fine," vice president of officiating Dean Blandino made note of the play because Suh lowered his head to hit the quarterback. Source: The Redzone markaz's Take: Sounds like they'll fine him again with the VP of officiating making the comment about Suh lowering his head.
