Ndamukong Suh signed with the Philadelphia Eagles in November 2022 with the hopes of winning a Super Bowl with one of the best teams in football. After falling just short of hoisting the Lombardi Trophy, the veteran defensive tackle seems open to doing it again.
Suh, the second pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, has already delivered a storied career in pro football. The 6-foot-4 defensive tackle won Super Bowl LV with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, is a five-time All-Pro selection and is a member of the NFL 2010s All-Decade Team.
Coming off his age-35 season, the former Nebraska star has earned nearly $170 million in contract totals during the course of his career. After fielding offerings from multiple teams last season, it appears there is an openness to playing as a 36-year-old if the right opportunity comes along.

Appearing on the Rich Eisen Show, Suh was honest about his future in the NFL and said he is keeping all of his options open for the 2023 season.
“I’ll say this, all options are on the table.”
Ndamukong Suh on whether or not he’ll play in the NFL next season
Much like last season, Suh could hold off on signing a deal until late in 2023. Philadelphia used him as a rotational defensive tackle, the best way to utilize him in his late 30s. Given he played relatively well, earning a 68.9 run-defense grade from Pro Football Focus, there will likely be interest again if he wants to return.
Assuming Suh only wants to play for a Super Bowl contender next season, his best bet is to hold off on signing this summer. He can spend the next few months training and spending time with his family, using those months early in the 2023 NFL season to get a read on the best teams in the league.
Once injuries inevitably strike and clubs realize their weaknesses, a few potential destinations stand out as solid fits for Suh.
