Nebraska DB Myles Farmer enters transfer portal amid suspension

LINCOLN, Neb. -- Nebraska defensive back Myles Farmer entered the transfer portal Wednesday after coach Matt Rhule suspended him for the start of preseason practice.

Farmer was the team's second-leading tackler last season and had been expected to be the anchor of the Cornhuskers' secondary. A Nebraska spokesperson confirmed Farmer's name is in the portal.

Rhule didn't disclose the reason for Farmer's suspension other than to say it had to do with a failure to adhere to team standards.

The previous coaching staff suspended Farmer for the game against Michigan last November after he was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving.
