Oklahoma Sooners head coach Lincoln Riley announced the dismissal of Mikey Henderson Tuesday after local authorities requested a warrant for the running back’s arrest.
According to media reports, the Norman Police Department is alleging Henderson was involved in an April 15 armed robbery that already resulted in the departures of running back Seth McGowan and receiver Trejan Bridges. The warrant request followed a protracted investigation into the alleged involvement of a third participant in the robbery. SI Sooners first reported on the warrant request for Henderson.
OU fans saw glimpses of Henderson on the field at H-back during the 2020 season.
