An Indiana University spokesman confirmed Thursday morning Patrick has been suspended. Younger brother Wright, was arrested Wednesday in Harriman and was expected to be transferred to the Blount County Jail.
On the second season of the show, Wright spoke about his troubled youth. Their mother walked out on Wright and his brothers and their father was in prison. Wright grew up with a combustible temper, said he trusted no one, and often clashed with mentor, coach Buddy Stephens on the show.
He also battled head injuries and appeared to play through concussions while at East Mississippi Community College, famed last-chance program.
One of the hardest scenes to watch in the series was when Wright was told he could not play because of injury and he lost it in the locker room. He spoke about football being his life and they could not take that away from him.

The dreams of the footballing brothers appears to have taken a wrong turn.
Wright, 20, initially had a scholarship to play running back at Auburn. He left EMCC and went on to Division II West Georgia but wound up leaving school before this season.
He was arrested in Tennessee.
Patrick, 22, a former Tennessee recruit who also played two years at EMCC (before the NetFlix series was filmed there), most recently was a member of the University of Indiana football team in 2016.
After suffering a knee injury last season, he was granted a medical hardship waiver in July. He remained on scholarship, and was suspended following his arrest this week.
