Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs earned the ire of the Steelers for his shot to the back of running back LeGarrette Blount’s legs during last Sunday night’s game.

The hit touched off pushing and shoving among the players on the field and caused officials to flag Suggs for a personal foul. Blount called Suggs “a dirty player” after the game and the NFL has now weighed in on the hit.

Suggs said Wednesday, via Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com, that he heard “a little something” from the league about the hit. Suggs didn’t say exactly what he heard, but it’s more likely that the league reached out to tell Suggs that they were fining him for the play than it is that they were telling him it was the sort of thing they’d like to see more of in the future.

Suggs, who said he wasn’t trying to hurt Blount, also said that he didn’t expect to hear anything different from Blount or others on the Steelers. Unless the two teams meet in the playoffs, the bad feelings will have to remain on the back burner until 2015.
