While I agree a flag should have been called based on the new rule, a suspension is a purely random act in this case. It's like cops giving on ticket on the interstate when everyone is speeding; there have been a number of hits on that level in which penalties were doled out. The question: why this one? Though it was surely a brutal hit to his upper chest area, the DB did not lead with his headgear; looked like a shoulder hit to me.

It should have been a penalty, but suspension without a warning is silly unless he had a history of doing it.
