Texas Tech football wide receiver Myller Royals was arrested Friday on two misdemeanor charges after a traffic stop on campus by a Tech Police Department officer.

Royals was booked into the Lubbock County Jail on charges of possession of a prohibited weapon (knuckles), a Class A misdemeanor, and driving with an invalid license, a Class B misdemeanor. He bonded out of the jail on Saturday.

Royals, a 6-foot-5, 180-pound freshman, has yet to play in a game this season and Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said recently he plans to redshirt Royals this year.

"He's still on the team," Tech athletic department spokesman Matt Dowdy said Wednesday. "It's being handled internally, between him and coach Kingsbury."

Royals signed with the Red Raiders last winter after a record-setting career at Abilene Cooper and joined the team in January.

A Tech Police officer stopped Royals just before 4 p.m. Friday, according to a summary of the department's daily reports. The reason for the stop is not listed. A copy for the police report was unavailable Wednesday.

The bond amounts were $1,000 on the prohibited weapon charge and $750 on the invalid license charge.
