Video: Ndamukong Suh Also In A Nike Commercial?

by Sean Yuille on May 3, 2011 11:23 PM EDT in Detroit Lions News

Earlier tonight I posted the video of Ndamukong Suh's new Chrysler commercial. Shortly after I discovered that Suh posted a video on his Facebook fan page earlier today of what looks to be a new commercial for Nike. Take a look:

If this is indeed a new commercial, Suh can add Nike to a list of TV advertisements that already includes Dick's Sporting Goods and Chrysler. He has also been involved with Subway, but I don't know if he's actually appeared in a commercial for them yet. If he hasn't, it's probably only a matter of time.

Suh is the most marketable defensive tackle in the NFL and is actually the most marketable Lions player. Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson have both been in commercials, but Suh seemingly has the longest list of endorsements already. Not bad for a second-year player at one of the less glamorous positions in football.

Yeah

I like this commercial better.

Don't let my profile name fool you. My heart is, and always has been, with the Detroit Lions.

Don't forget.....

….that Suh and Tim Tebow were both in Nike’s “BOOM!” commercial last year. Still, it is awesome to see a Detroit Lion getting national recognition like this, especially since it has been over 10 years since a Detroit Lion has been worthy of such praise.

Also, I wanted to say hello to the pride! Long time stalker here, first time poster.

The mold is set, and the die is cast. On September 11, 2011, "No Fair" Nick Fairley, "Ndominator" Ndamukong Suh, KVB, and Cliff Avril will open the Sack Factory for business.

Just wait until Stafford is back

He will take the nfl by storm and gain a ton of endorsements along the way

The future is bright.

Yep, that pretty much sums up Suh

Don’t piss him off.

I'm happy for the guy, he deserves it, but damn I would rather hear about some football!

Sorry, it is getting to the point where that comes out like a reflex action whenever I get ticked off about the lockout.

Suh

also did an Omaha Steak commercial when he was first drafted. He is all over the place, both on and off the field!

Suh is easy to market.

He is very likable, well spoken, and is a high character guy. It is hard for fans not to fall in love with the guy. Even non-Lions fans seem to like Suh except on game day. Sweet commercial and I’m sure more will follow.
