Multiple sources have confirmed to Inside Nebraska that Myles Farmer was cited early Sunday morning on suspicion of driving under the influence.

Farmer has been suspended for this weekend's game at No. 3 Michigan, according to head coach Mickey Joseph. The Huskers' interim head coach released a statement:

“I was informed on Sunday morning of an incident involving Myles Farmer this weekend Myles is a good young man, but understands he used poor judgement and made a mistake on Saturday night. The result of poor judgement and mistakes is consequences and discipline. In addition to penalties he may face through the legal system, Myles is suspended for this week’s game at Michigan and will be subject to internal discipline.”

Farmer, a starting safety at Nebraska, is the team's second-leading tackler with 62 stops on the year. He also had three pass breakups and one interception. The 6-foot-3, 200-pounder from Atlanta is in his fourth season with the Husker program.

Joseph commented further on Farmer at his Tuesday press conference.

"It's something you can't do. It's not smart," Joseph said.

Phalen Sanford and DeShon Singleton, in that order, are the two main players Joseph mentioned who the Huskers are looking to replace Farmer against Michigan this weekend.

Farmer released a statement on Tuesday night on Twitter:

“I would like to take an opportunity to address the situation that occurred this weekend. I understand that I used poor judgement and made a decision that could have put others’ safety at risk. I recognize the serious nature of my actions and sincerely apologize for my behavior. First and foremost, I apologize to those who have been affected or have had family or friends affected by the actions of drunk or impaired driving. Secondly, I apologize for the negative attention my actions may cause my family, my teammates, Coach Joseph, our coaching staff, the Husker athletic department, and the University of Nebraska. Finally, I want to apologize to Husker Nation who has supported me on and off the field the past four years and made this a second home.

I understand the volume of the situation and know I will have to accept the consequences and discipline that come my way. Moving forward, I must hold myself to higher standards and know that I have to work to earn back everyone’s trust. I will fully support my brothers as they travel to Ann Arbor this Saturday and will be cheering them on.”
