The Seattle Times has reported that two of the key defensive players on the Washington Huskies football team have been suspended from the game against Rutgers this Friday, September 1.
Azeem Victor, a senior linebacker, and sophomore defensive back Austin Joyner will not be joining the team on their trip to Piscataway Friday evening. Washington Head Coach Chris Peterson did not give a reason for the suspension other than a violation of team rules.
Victor, named a pre-season All-American by Sports Illustrated, will miss one game. Joyner is listed by Scout in their post-spring depth chart as the #3 back.
