Apparently the whole thing was organized by Ndamukong Suh, who isn't known for his fun-loving demeanor.

It was Ndamukong Suh's idea for the Christmas sweaters and he bought them all, according to Caraun Reid.

Suh wasn't the only player who forced his teammates to wear something embarrassing. North Carolina State alum Stephen Tulloch made UNC grad Eric Ebron wear Wolfpack gear after the Tar Heels lost Saturday's game.

Fifteen NFL teams are selling their own ugly sweaters, but the Lions are not one of them.
