Running back Maurice Washington has been dismissed from Nebraska's football team amid his ongoing legal battle after being charged with two crimes last February.

Per Sean Callahan of HuskerOnline.com, the Cornhuskers officially parted ways with Washington on Friday.

Washington was charged in California with felony possession of child pornography and misdemeanor posting of a photograph or recording of a sexual nature without consent. Washington's ex-girlfriend, who he dated in high school, told police he texted her a video in March 2018 which she said showed her being sexually assaulted by two boys.
