Suh still holding out from Lions training camp

ALLEN PARK, Mich. — Ndamukong Suh missed his third straight day of practice Monday with the Detroit Lions.

Coach Jim Schwartz said it’s disappointing Suh has missed some opportunities in training camp that are gone forever.

Suh is the former Nebraska defensive lineman who was the No. 2 pick overall in the NFL draft.

The Lions have had only one player, Calvin Johnson, miss more than a couple days since Bryant Westbrook was a long-term holdout in 1997. Westbrook’s agents were Roosevelt Barnes and Eugene Parker, both of whom are representing Suh.

“Both sides are working hard to get this resolved,” Barnes wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press.

Suh posted a message on his Twitter account Sunday that quoted a biblical passage: “Judge not by with appearances, but judge with the right judgment.”
