The numb extremities excuse seems to have worked for Ndamukong Suh, so New York Giants offensive lineman Geoff Schwartz is planning to try it during a game next season.
In case you missed it, Suh was initially suspended one game for stepping on Aaron Rodgers’ leg. The suspension was later reduced to a $70,000 fine after Suh argued in his appeal that he stepped on Rodgers accidentally because his feet were so cold he couldn’t feel them. Take it away, Geoff.
Mr official, my hands were frozen, otherwise I wouldn't have held that guy. Totally using that next season.

Worth a shot, right? If Suh couldn’t tell the difference between a leg and the ground, maybe a lineman can’t even feel when he has a hand full of jersey.
As you can see, Suh’s co-workers believe his excuse about as much as we do.
