Why is Suh only losing $82,000 per game that he is suspended. When Barry Sanders Retired this is what happened.
"Sanders' retirement came somewhat unexpectedly and was a matter of controversy. Two years beforehand, Sanders had renewed his contract with the Lions for $35.4 million over six years with an $11 million signing bonus. When he retired with several years left on his contract, the Lions demanded that he return $7.3 million of the bonus.[8] Sanders refused, and the Lions sued and eventually won a judgment against him."
Now Suh is guaranteed $40 million dollars over five seasons, an average of $500,000 per game. It seems like the NFL and Lions are playing games by declaring his game checks to only be $82,000 each. Sure they went after Barry but they refuse to go after Suh. Why is this guy getting by so easily. Maybe a Million dollars lost will make him wake up.
