Four Texas A&M football players, including second-leading receiver Evan Stewart, were suspended for Saturday night's 17-9 home victory over Miami.

The other suspended players were defensive backs Denver Harris and Deyon Bouie and wide receiver Chris Marshall.

The suspensions were related to a curfew violation, sources told ESPN, confirming news first reported by TexAgs.com.

Aggies head coach Jimbo Fisher said the suspensions were due to a violation of team rules but declined to elaborate.

"We'll move on, and we handled it the way we needed to handle it," Fisher said.

Despite the suspensions, Texas A&M rebounded from a 17-14 home loss to Appalachian State.

Max Johnson got the start at quarterback for the Aggies on Saturday, after Haynes King started the first two games. He went 10-of-20 for 140 yards and a touchdown and also rushed seven times for 23 yards.
