Texas' S'Maje Burrell ID'd as other driver in T'Vondre Sweat crash

Texas linebacker S'Maje Burrell has been identified as the driver of a vehicle that hit an SUV driven by former Longhorns defensive lineman T'Vondre Sweat on Sunday morning, resulting in Sweat crashing the SUV and being arrested for driving while intoxicated.

Police said Sweat was driving a Ford Bronco when he was hit from behind, causing him to lose control, veer off onto a service road and roll onto its side. When police responded at 4:41 a.m., the other driver, later identified as Burrell, had left the scene.

Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said Wednesday that Burrell has been suspended.
