Devon Smith, a senior who gave Penn State an elusive target at slot receiver in new head coach Bill O'Brien's offense, has been dismissed from the team for a violation of team rules, two websites have reported.
Both "Fight On State" and "Blue White Illustrated" quoted sources as saying Smith was off the team. Each said it was not clear if the dismissal resulted from Smith's arrest on misdemeanor charges of marijuana possession and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Penn State did not respond to an e-mail seeking confirmation of the Smith move.
