Once a fan favorite in Provo, Samson Nacua now finds himself in the national spotlight for all the wrong reasons. The former BYU wide receiver was suspended by the United Football League (UFL) this week after an altercation with a fan spiraled into physical contact.

Michigan Panthers receiver Samson Nacua has been suspended for one game by the UFL for slapping a fan following a 32-27 loss to the St. Louis Battlehawks over the weekend. Following the game, Nacua got into a confrontation with a fan. It's not clear what instigated the incident, but the situation ended with Samson slapping the fan in the face.

The UFL is investigating an altercation that took place Saturday between a Michigan Panthers player and a fan.
