Keyshawn Johnson Jr. Cited For Possession Of Marijuana

According the the Omaha World Herald, Keyshawn Johnson Jr. was cited Friday afternoon for possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia by University of Nebraska-Lincoln police.

According to the police report, university police were alerted to possible drug activity when a residence director in Selleck Residence Hall alerted police to possible narcotic usage.

Johnson is expected to be a key contributor to a receiving core relying on a number of freshman to this point. Behind Junior Stanley Morgan and Senior De’Mornay Pierson-El, the Huskers are thin at the wideout position.

Johnson, a top 50 wide receiver recruit in the class of 2017 hauled in 68 receptions last season playing for a talented Calabasas High School. Johnson finished his senior season with six touchdowns and 944 yards receiving.

Of note, this is the third Husker that has been cited this off-season with Stanley Morgan Jr and safety Antonio Reed having been cited for possession of marijuana while on a May trip to Florida.
