Sumner-Gardner, who was one of the highest-rated recruits in school history, missed the first four games of the season due to academic issues.
Despite the end of this academic suspension, Sumner-Gardner did not travel to New Mexico in the week that followed. He eventually returned to action against Colorado State and played in the next six games before missing the Air Force game at the end of the year.
According to his mom"s Twitter account, Sumner-Gardner recently had surgery to repair his shoulder.
It is unknown at the time if Sumner-Gardner - who has two years of eligibility remaining - will attempt to play somewhere else.
