Baltimore Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs is questionable to
play this weekend against the Washington Redskins due to his torn biceps
muscle, but the former Defensive Player of the Year plans on playing regardless
of his current status, reports Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports.

Ravens list Suggs as questionable. from everything i am hearing he's going to play. question will be how effective can he be

La Canfora adds that the question becomes how effective
Suggs will be against the Redskins if he plays through his injury. Many
expected the linebacker to be a game-time decision in Washington, but it appears
that he’s going to push the issue and play.
You always want to see players on your team fight to get
back on the field following injury, but they also have to be smart about it.
Their priority should be winning and not hurting the club, but Suggs may
believe even if he’s at 50% this weekend he offers his team the best option. It
may be hard to argue the point until we see him on the field against the
Redskins.
Beyond Suggs the team has already ruled out tight end Ed
Dickson due to a knee injury. While cornerback Jimmy Smith was able to return
to practice this week following sports hernia surgery, he is considered
doubtful to play against Washington.
