Florida State freshman quarterback Malik Henry has been suspended indefinitley for violating team rules, coach Jimbo Fisher announced Saturday.

Fisher would not reveal what exactly the suspension was for or how long it would last. Henry, a talented four-star prospect out of California, is said to have maturity and character issues and has transferred schools multiple times.

The suspension is a big blow to FSU's depth at quarterback, as Sean Maguire is out with a broken bone in his left foot and will miss at least 3-4 weeks. Redshirt freshman Deondre Francois is expected to start for the Seminoles until Maguire returns, with J.J. Cosentino and walk-on Jake Rizzo as the only remaining back-up options.
