Entering his third season with the Lions, Suh said it is important for him to work on establishing roots off in the Motor City.
"I look to be here for a very, very long time," said Suh, who is from Portland, Ore. "I look to win many championships here. I want make it known that I look to be here in Detroit, whether it is down in the city or up here."
The facility in suburban Detroit is the 14th opened by D1 founder Will Bartholomew, who played fullback at Tennessee from 1998-2001.
D1 has partnered with stars such as Peyton Manning and Tim Tebow, along with physicians, to open facilities that work out and provide physical therapy to people of all abilities 7 or older to train as if they're preparing to be Division-I athletes.
