The University of Utah has suspended defensive tackle Jamal Wallace from its football team, according to ESPN and CBS Sports. The move came after his arrest on October 11.

Wallace was arrested on suspicion of sharing intimate images, ESPN and CBS Sports reported. ESPN said he faces five misdemeanor counts. Arrest papers say he is also under investigation for rape, ESPN reported, citing papers obtained by several news outlets.

A woman who had dated Wallace on and off accused him of sexually assaulting her on October 9, according to a police document described by ESPN and CBS Sports. She said she later learned that videos of the incident had been sent to five people on Snapchat. CBS Sports cited a document first obtained by The Salt Lake Tribune.

Salt Lake police said they found videos of the incident, ESPN reported. ESPN said the arrest papers show Wallace denied sexually assaulting the woman.

Wallace has not been formally charged, ESPN and CBS Sports reported. He was released on $5,000 bond.

Utah said in a statement that it learned of "the situation with Jamal Wallace" on October 11, according to ESPN and CBS Sports. The school said he "was immediately placed on an indefinite suspension from the program." The school said it would not comment further because it is a pending legal matter.

Wallace is a senior who transferred to Utah from Tennessee, ESPN reported. He has played in one game for the Utes this season, the opener against Idaho, according to ESPN. He played in six games for Tennessee in 2025.
