Michigan defensive back Nate Johnson has been suspended indefinitely from all team activities.

The school announced the suspension in a one-sentence statement Saturday that did not say why Johnson was suspended.

Johnson played wide receiver last year as a freshman, catching one pass on the season.

He then switched positions to cornerback.

Michigan has this weekend off before hosting rival Michigan State next Saturday night.
