Tommie Harris will not be suspended

Vernon Davis may not be impressed with Chicago’s defensive front, but Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris will get a chance to change his mind Thursday night.

Mike Sando of ESPN reports that Harris will not be suspended for punching Cardinals guard Deuce Lutui in the head last Sunday. Harris could still be fined, but the league had to decide on Harris’ status more quickly than usual because the Bears are playing so early this week.

Sando explains that they play’s timing -- it happened on the fourth play from scrimmage -- may have played a role in the decision not to suspend Harris, since he essentially already missed one game.
