Former University of Tennessee linebacker A.J. Johnson, a prospect in this year’s NFL draft, has been indicted in a rape investigation.

Johnson’s attorney, Tom Dillard, confirmed to the Knoxville News Sentinel that the Knox County District Attorney General’s office had informed him of his client’s indictment.

“We’re making plans for him to surrender,” Dillard said.

Johnson and his former Tennessee teammate, cornerback Michael Williams, were accused of rape by a 19-year-old female Tennessee student in November.

Johnson has been invited to the Scouting Combine, where NFL teams will surely have plenty of questions about his off-field actions. Johnson is talented enough to play in the NFL, but there’s a good chance that the 32 teams will decide that he’s not worth the risk.
