Texas will be without one of its best defensive players for the rest of this season.

Starting cornerback Holton Hill will miss the Longhorns' final three games while serving a suspension for violating team rules, coach Tom Herman announced on Tuesday.

Hill's 51 tackles are second on the team and he has a team-best three defensive touchdowns this season. He also has two interceptions, six pass breakups and a forced fumble this season.

Herman said that Hill, a junior, will be allowed to practice and remain a member of the team but will not be able to participate in games.
