Ndamukong Suh had his one-game suspension overturned by appeals officer Ted Cottrell on Tuesday, a day after the NFL suspended Suh for Sunday's playoff game between the Lions and Dallas Cowboys.

Instead, Cottrell ruled Suh will have to pay a $70,000 fine.

Suh was suspended by the league for stepping on the calf and ankle of Aaron Rodgers during the Packers' 30-20 win over the Lions on Sunday.

Ndamukong Suh has been suspended for the Detroit Lions' playoff game at the Dallas Cowboys for stepping on Aaron Rodgers' leg twice, once with each foot.

Suh also applied pressure and pushed off Rodgers' unprotected leg with his left foot, violating unnecessary roughness rules, the league said in a statement.

Suh, who will be reinstated next Monday, can appeal the suspension within three days. He can ask for an expedited appeal, which would be heard by Ted Cottrell, a hearing officer employed by the NFL and the players' union. No hearing is scheduled, but one could happen as soon as Tuesday.

Dominic Raiola has been suspended by the NFL for one game without pay for stomping on the ankle of Ego Ferguson.

Raiola will miss the Detroit Lions' key NFC North game against the Green Bay Packers.

Raiola called the move unintentional and apologized to Ferguson after the game.

The NFL is investigating an incident in which Dominic Raiola stepped on the ankle of Ego Ferguson.

"The matter will be reviewed and appropriate discipline will be applied for any potential safety-related rules violations," NFL spokesman Michael Signora said in an email Monday.

Raiola was caught on tape stepping on Ferguson's foot during the third quarter of the Detroit Lions' 20-14 win over the Chicago Bears.

Raiola said after the game that it was unintentional.

With their surprising 27-24 loss to Washington on Saturday afternoon, the Philadelphia Eagles are on the brink of elimination from playoff contention.

The Eagles will be eliminated if the Dallas Cowboys beat the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.

The loss also knocked Philadelphia from Wild Card contention, clinching a playoff berth for the Detroit Lions.

Ndamukong Suh said Wednesday that his agent, Jimmy Sexton, will be the one to decide where he signs this offseason.

"It'll be Jimmy's decision, so we'll go with that," said Suh, who has steadfastly not discussed his contract throughout the season. "You can call Jimmy."

Whenever Suh has been asked about his contract this season or even dollar amounts he might be looking for, he has been consistent in saying "Ask Jimmy."

Suh is in the final year of his rookie deal from being the No. 2 pick in the 2010 draft that averaged $12.6 million per year and had $40 million guaranteed.

Suh has 38 tackles and 5.5 sacks.

"All you have to do is turn on the film," Lions coach Jim Caldwell said. "I think everybody that plays against us can see what kind of impact he has on a ballgame.

"He's a wrecking crew that most people don't leave him alone."

Darrelle Revis, Golden Tate, Julius Peppers, DeMarcus Ware and Justin Forsett are ranked as the top offseason acquisitions of 2014 by Mike Sando.

Revis has re-established himself as one of the best corners in the league and currently ranks second in Pro Football Focus grading at the position. The Patriots acquired him for a $7 million cap charge this season.

Emmanuel Sanders, Darren Sproles, Steve Smith, Brandon Flowers and Jared Veldheer are ranked 6-10.
