I’ll admit it. I thought Terrell Suggs was finished after his latest Achilles tear.
According to John Harbaugh though, Suggs is ready to go and even passed the Ravens always difficult conditioning test. Sarah Ellison of BaltimoreRavens.com transcribed Harbaugh’s comments to former Ravens head coach and current NFL Network analyst Brian Billick:
“Terrell Suggs, he’s coming back from the Achilles, so on his own, unbeknownst to anybody, he grabs the conditioning coach and runs the conditioning test [Saturday] and passes it,” Harbaugh said. “And we didn’t even make him do it.”
Billick, who drafted Suggs in 2003 and coached him for five seasons, was shocked.
“In my day, I had to drag him out here to try to get the conditioning test done,” Billick said. “You’re doing a heck of a job.”
