The leg Suh stepped on was the same Rodgers re-injured earlier in the game.

Rodgers sustained the injury while running toward the end zone. He stopped mid-run and threw a short touchdown pass to receiver Randall Cobb.

Suh was not flagged on the play.

Suh has a history of dirty plays. In 2011, he was suspended for two games for stomping on then-Packers guard Evan Dietrich-Smith.

Last week, Lions center Dominic Raiola was suspended for appeared to deliberately step on the leg of Bears defensive tackle Ego Ferguson. He was suspended for Sunday's game.

The Packers beat the Lions, 30 to 20, to win the NFC North division. They will have the No. 2 seed in the NFC playoffs. Detroit will enter the playoffs as the No. 6 seed.
