Otomewo is a sophomore defensive back and Reynolds is a junior defensive lineman who is redshirting this season after joining the Sun Devils from Contra Costa Junior College. Reynolds and Otomewo are the third and fourth Sun Devils to be arrested this year.
Davon Durant was arrested in March and dismissed from the team following a domestic altercation with his girlfriend and defensive tackle George Lea was arrested in June following a BB gun incident. Lea remains with the team but was suspended for this season.
