Quarterback Kai Locksley is back with the UTEP football team after a June parking lot altercation where, according to a complaint affidavit, he allegedly threatened to empty a handgun on people.

An hour after Friday's first practice of the fall, coach Dana Dimel announced the senior quarterback, who had been suspended since a June arrest on four charges, was back with the team.

“While we welcome Kai back to our football team, I want to make it very clear that he will have a list of expectations placed on him,” Dimel said.
