TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — Alabama coach Nick Saban has indefinitely suspended two players.

Saban said Tuesday that redshirt freshman wide receiver Keiwone Malone and sophomore defensive lineman Darrington Sentimore violated unspecified team rules and policy.

Sentimore played in 11 games last season, making nine tackles and recording four quarterback hurries and a forced fumble.

Saban also announced that safety Robby Green won’t return to the team. Green was battling for a starting job in 2010 but the NCAA suspended him for the season.

He also missed spring practice under a team suspension.
