If you are referring to the same play and consider that a "punch" that is laughable in the context of tackle football. Any quarterback who played not too long ago would consider that hit 2 hand touch compared to what happened previously in those situations. The quarterbacks were leveled if they exposed themselves like that in situations where defensive linemen could pickup speed. Suh appeared to be just trying to get Mahomes down with as little force as possible. Imagine Suh landing on Mahomes with full force/speed in that situation with I believe the game already over.
Okay for folks to bash Suh from some of his antics of the past. Some of the stuff he did at times with Detroit were cheap shots/dirty/maybe retaliation in some cases.
But I actually don't think Suh wants to be the one that seriously injures Mahomes needlessly.

I remember the hit. It’s normally not called since both were sliding, but certainly could’ve been. By rule it was a foul
I also remember when Brady got a free 15 yards in the AFCCG when Chris Jones hit his shoulder. Laughable
Also interesting that you guys (with Steve Grogan) lost a playoff game 44 years ago to Oakland because one of your lineman hit Stabler in the head
