Johnson had committed to Florida State in 2012 and never wavered despite offers from Auburn, Clemson, Ohio State and Tennessee among others.

The Tallahassee Democrat was provided with a heavily redacted police florida-state-seminoles-suspended-indefinitely”>report. The victim’s name was listed in the report, but the suspect listed in the report was described as a black male between the age of 22 and 23.

The suspension comes in the wake of a police report filed that accuses Johnson of striking a woman while at a bar in Tallahassee. The most well documented case was Jameis Winston’s, as the TPD failed to interview him on several occasions after a female student accused him of raping her. Winston did, however, serve 20 hours of community service after he was given a citation for stealing crab legs from a Publix grocery store in Tallahassee last April.

Freshman Deondre Francois of IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida, also joined FSU’s quarterback competition this summer. He was Rivals’ No. 12 dual-threat quarterback.

Johnson won 2014 Florida Dairy Farmers Mr. Football honors.
